Homework Answers
1- Found in the nucleus and cytoplasm
ANSWER- All 3 protein filaments, microtubules, intermediate filaments, and microfilaments are found in the cytoplasm and near the nucleus.
2-Involved in the transport of vesicles and organelles.
ANSWER- Microtubules:- These are the thickest cytoskeleton and are involved in the intracellular translocation of vesicles and organelles.
3- Associate with proteins that help adhere cells to the extracellular matrix
ANSWER- Actin filaments- They associate with proteins aiding adherence to the extracellular matrix.
intermediate Filaments- In hemidesmosomes the integrin proteins link ntermediate filament with the extracellular matrix.
Microtubules - They are the structural component of cilia and flagella which are the locomotory organ used for adherence
Hence all the 3 cytoskeletons are associated with protein to aid adherence to the extracellular matrix
4- Stability is measure by hydrolysis of a nucleotide
ANSWER- Microtubules and actin filaments -These two polymers are assembled with energy expenditure.
5-Directly involved in phagocytosis
ANSWER- The actin cytoskeleton is directly involved in the phagocytosis during signal transduction.
6-Can associate into bundles with the help of other proteins.
ANSWER - All the three microtubules, intermediate filament, and actin filament can associate into bundles with the help
of other proteins.

For each of the following statements, decide whether it is True or False AND provide a justification for your decision The hydrolysis of ATP is required both for the contraction and relaxation of skeletal muscles. ANSWER: An actin filament will grow as long as actin monomers continue to be added to the plus end. ANSWER: In most animal cells, dyneins transport materials to the periphery of the cell, whereas kinesins transport material to the cell’s interior. ANSWER:

Curli are cell surface filaments that are found on pathogenic bacteria such as E. Coli and Salmonella. These filaments are thought the help bacterial adhere to surfaces, to facilitate bacterial interaction with cells, and to form biofilms. In a general sense, Curli are thought to help bacterial pathogenicity. Curli filaments are composed of the protein CsgA (Curli Specific Gene A). CsgA is synthesized in the cytosol (as all proteins are) and then transported (though the inner membrane, the periplasm and...
