Actin filaments and other proteins are responsible of amoeboid movement of important cells such as macrophages. How can the cell proceed in one direction by amoeboid movement, and what does it happen when direction must be changed? 2. Microtubule dynamics (polymerization and depolymerization) is important in many processes, mention at least two of them and specify the function of microtubules in ciliary beating

of the three types of fibers; microfilaments (or and intermediate filaments are fibers with diameters in a Microtubules are the filaments) are the middle range. Microtubules are hollow rods about 25 nm in diameter and 200 nm to 25 um in length. Microtubule fibers are constructed of the globular protein A tubulin dimer consists of two slightly different polypeptides: a-tubulin and B-tubulin. Microtubules shape and support the cell and serve as tracks to guide motor proteins carrving organelles to their...

The cytoskeleton controls the location of organelles in eukaryotic cells. C. Covalent bonds between protein monomers hold together cytoskeletal filaments. D.

please answer all that you can 1. You have genetically engineered green fluorescent protein (GFP) containing a KDEL sequence (GFP-KDEL). When GFP-KDEL is expressed in normal human fibroblasts and examined using fluorescence microscopy, the fluorescence appears diffuse across the cytoplasm. How would you explain this observations given that KDEL is supposed to be an ER-specific sorting sequence? A. This engineered GFP would not have a hydrophobic signal sequence to get it into the RER in the first place. B. The...
