Sentences with phrase «myosin movement»

Not exact matches

This constriction results from actomyosin contractility, a co-ordinated movement of filaments made of a protein known as actin, and a motor protein known as myosin.

We have placed fluorescent labels on portions of the tail regions of Arabidopsis myosin XIs in order to determine whether they localize, and therefore what role a particular myosin may play in movement of different types of organelles.

Both actin and myosin inhibitors affect spindle architecture in PtK 1 cells: does an actomyosin system contribute to mitotic spindle forces by regulating attachment and movements of chromosomes in mammalian cells?

«Future studies are focusing on the molecular mechanisms underlying the ageing - related changes in skeletal muscle and the specific effects of HRT on the structure and function of the dominant protein in skeletal muscle, called myosin, which generates force and movement.»

Scientists are interested in the timing of the movement of myosin along actin filaments which is driven by the power stroke — a process called lever arm swing.

These insights provide details about how myosin motor proteins work, and this knowledge could advance the understanding of diseases related to movement on a molecular level.

They attached fluorescent probes to parts of the myosin motor and observed distance changes between the glowing probe sites to time the protein's force - generating movements.

The myosin II signaling allows T cells to make selective contacts with the adhesive substrates, enabling rapid movement (Jacobelli et al., 2010).

This causes the two main protein molecules (Aktin und Myosin) inside the muscle fibres to move relative to each other resulting in shortening (contracting) and lengthening (relaxing) muscle movement.
