Lighting up microtubule cytoskeleton dynamics in skeletal muscle
In the past few decades, live cell microscopy techniques in combination with fluorescent tagging have provided a true explosion in our knowledge of the inner functioning of the cell. Dynamic phenomena can be observed inside living cells and the behavior of individual molecules participating in those events can be documented. However, our preference for simple or easy model systems such as cell ...
متن کاملThe Role of Molecular Microtubule Motors and the Microtubule Cytoskeleton in Stress Granule Dynamics
Stress granules (SGs) are cytoplasmic foci that appear in cells exposed to stress-induced translational inhibition. SGs function as a triage center, where mRNAs are sorted for storage, degradation, and translation reinitiation. The underlying mechanisms of SGs dynamics are still being characterized, although many key players have been identified. The main components of SGs are stalled 48S prein...
متن کاملActin and microtubule cytoskeleton interactions.
Plant cytoskeleton consists of two major networks of protein polymers, actin microfilaments (AFs) and microtubules (MTs). These networks perform numerous functions that are essential for cell division and for maintaining the integrity of cytoplasm required for intracellular transport and cell shape. Besides the more or less indirect cooperation between AFs and MTs, their direct interactions thr...
متن کاملBuilding the Microtubule Cytoskeleton
The microtubule (MT) cytoskeleton gives cells their shape, organizes the cellular interior, and segregates chromosomes. These functions rely on the precise arrangement of MTs, which is achieved by the coordinated action ofMT-associated proteins (MAPs). We highlight the first andmost important examples of how different MAP activities are combined in vitro to create an ensemble function that exce...
متن کاملThe diagnostic challenge of psychiatric symptoms in neurodegenerative disease: rates of and risk factors for prior psychiatric diagnosis in patients with early neurodegenerative disease.
OBJECTIVE To identify rates of and risk factors for psychiatric diagnosis preceding the diagnosis of neurodegenerative disease. METHOD Systematic, retrospective, blinded chart review was performed of 252 patients with a neurodegenerative disease diagnosis seen in our specialty clinic between 1999 and 2008. Neurodegenerative disease diagnoses included behavioral-variant frontotemporal dementia...
