Different cytoplasmic calcium contents among three species of Characeae.
Internodal cells of three species of Characeae, Nitella flexilis, Nitella axilliformis and Chara corallina, were analyzed for the contents of Ca(2+ )and Mg(2+) in the cytoplasm. To avoid contamination of Ca(2+) from the cell wall and vacuole, the vacuolar sap was replaced with a sorbitol solution containing Sr(2+) by the vacuolar perfusion method after the cell had been treated with Sr(2+). No ...
متن کاملGolgi Vesiculation and Lysosome Dispersion in Cells Lacking Cytoplasmic Dynein
Cytoplasmic dynein, a minus end-directed, microtubule-based motor protein, is thought to drive the movement of membranous organelles and chromosomes. It is a massive complex that consists of multiple polypeptides. Among these polypeptides, the cytoplasmic dynein heavy chain (cDHC) constitutes the major part of this complex. To elucidate the function of cytoplasmic dynein, we have produced mice ...
متن کاملCytoplasmic streaming in plant cells: the role of wall slip.
We present a computer simulation study, via lattice Boltzmann simulations, of a microscopic model for cytoplasmic streaming in algal cells such as those of Chara corallina. We modelled myosin motors tracking along actin lanes as spheres undergoing directed motion along fixed lines. The sphere dimension takes into account the fact that motors drag vesicles or other organelles, and, unlike previo...
متن کاملCytoplasmic streaming in plants.
Plant cells are surrounded by a cell wall composed of polysaccharides and hence can change neither their form nor their position. However, active movement of organelles (cytoplasmic streaming or protoplasmic streaming) is observed in plant cells, and involvement of the actin/myosin system in these processes has been suggested. Successful biochemical and biophysical approaches to studying myosin...
متن کاملMicrofilaments and cytoplasmic streaming: inhibition of streaming with cytochalasin.
Cytochalasin B reversibly inhibits cytoplasmic streaming in both Nitella and Avena cells. Colchicine, on the other hand, has no effect on streaming in either plant; nor does colchicine prevent the recovery of streaming after cytochalasin is withdrawn. The inhibition of protein synthesis by cycloheximide has no effect on either streaming itself or on the recovery of streaming after cytochalasin ...
