During axonemal transport, particles are mobilized by kinesin and cytoplasmic dynein along the microtubule doublets of the axoneme. Defective axonemal transport results in the abnorCytoskeleton 1. EPITHELIUM 27 Figure 1-32. Classes of myosin molecules and how they work Myosin II Proteolytic cleavage of myosin II at specific sites Subfragment S1 F-actin Actin-binding and ATPase domains. The myosin II head provides the driving force for movement. ATP drives the movement of myosin heads along actin filaments.

Cofilin (also known as actin depolymerizing factor) triggers depolymerization of ADP-bound actin at the pointed end. Similar to profilin and thymosin, cofilin forms a dimeric complex with G-actin. 4. Gelsolin has a dual role: it is a capping protein and prevents the loss and addition of actin monomers, and it is a severing protein. In the presence of Ca2+, gelsolin fragments actin filaments and remains bound to the barbed end, forming a cap that prevents further filament growth. Type IV collagen Nidogen (entactin) Macula adherens (spot desmosome) Desmosomes are symmetrical structures consisting of: (1) plaques containing desmoplakins, plakoglobin and plakophilins (2) linking cadherins (mainly desmocollins and desmogleins) and (3) keratin filaments attached to the plaques.

5. Cadherins and the afadin-nectin complex are present in tight junctions and zonula adherens. Actin microfilaments are associated with these two junctions but there is a difference: catenins are present in zonula adherens but not in tight junctions. Cytoskeleton Box 1-D | Periodic acid–Schiff (PAS) reaction • PAS is a widely used histochemical technique to show 1,2-glycol or 1,2-aminoalcohol groups, such as those present in glycogen, mucus, and glycoproteins. • Periodic acid, an oxidant, converts these groups to aldehydes.
