robbins Flashcards
No of genes in the genome
20K
the percentage of genome coding genes
1.5P
two most common forms of DNA variation
SNP and CNV
two types of actin
G-actin (globular) and F-actin (filamentous)
3 types of cytoskeleton components
actin microfilament (5-9 nm) intermediate filament (10nm) microtubules (25nm)
which cytoskeletal component vary between cell types
intermediate filament
vimentin is seen in mesenchymal cells eg.
fibroblasts or endothelium
Desmin where and function
muscle, form a scaffold for actin and myosin interaction
neurofilament and glial fibrillary acidic protein are
IF
two types of CK
type I (acidic) and II (basic)
CK is a - filament
IF
three types of cell cell interactions
occluding, anchoring and communicating
occluding cell junction aka
tight
anchoring jn aka
desmosomes (hemidesmosomes if connecting to BM)
communicating junction aka
gap
