Cytoskeleton

What are intermediate filaments powered by?

What are microtubules powered by?

Name one of the two tubulins.

What are actin filaments powered by?

What does the G in G-actin stand for?

What does the F in F-actin stand for?

What stimulates G-actin to form F-actin?

What inhibits G-actin assembly?

What stimulates F-actin to polymerize further?

What depolymerizes F-actin?

Which end of actin grows faster after the addition of monomers?

What protein binds to actin to allow branching?

What activates that branching protein?

This network of actin filament "crawls" and allows for movement

What catalyzes that network's movement in the front?

What catalyzes that network's movement in the back?

These bind the ECM to the cytoskeleton on focal contacts/focal adhesions

Dimers with 2 ATPase heads at one end and a coiled tail at the other end, responsible for muscle contraction.

Contractive elements of muscle cell

Do plant cells have tensile filaments?

Where is cellulose synthesized?

Which protein provides tensile strength in animal connective tissue?

This binds to and interacts with the previous protein, allowing cells to crawl through a tissue.

Negatively charged polysaccharides that help cells resist compression

These junctions make epithelium leakproof, and separates the apical and basolateral surfaces.

These junctions join actin to bundles.

These junctions join cells together using intermediate filaments.

These junctions are channels that allow for aqueous and inorganic molecules through.

These junctions anchor intermediate filaments to the basal lamina.

What connects the cytoplasms of plant cells?

What is the motor protein that moves along microtubules?

Which direction does ARP 2/3 nucleate from?

Which direction does formin nucleate from?

Gamma-TuRC and Gamma-Tubulin nucleate from which end?

Which end does dynein move towards?

Which end does kinesin move towards?

What is actin formation regulated by?
