What regulatory proteins can be found on an actin molecule?
Tropomyosin and Troponin
Where are actin filaments found?
Actin and myosin are contractile proteins found within muscle fiber. If you look at a muscle fiber under a microscope it is made up of several repeating units called sarcomeres that run along the length of the muscle fiber. Proteins actin and myosin are found in the sarcomeres in different locations.
What are the thin filaments in striated muscle?
Actino myosin is the thin protein found in muscles.
What is the role of the protein actin?
Actin is found in muscle tissue ( along with myosin) and makes up microfilaments which are responsible for cellular movement and also function in cell division.
What is myosin?
Myosins are a large family of motor proteins found in eukaryotic tissues. They are responsible for actin-based motility.
Why is glucokinase inactive in the nucleus?
Glucokinase Regulatory Protein is found in the nucleus which binds glucokinase to inactive it
Myofibrils are constructed of overlapping strands of protein polymers?
Actin and Myosin. A conglomeration of actin fibrils and myosin filaments form a myofibril body called a sarcomere.
What protein makes up the thick filaments of myofibrils?
Myosin makes up the THICK filaments, and actin makes up the thin filaments of myofibrils.
What is myglobin?
A heme protein found in straited skeletal and cardiac muscles
What elements are found in protein molecules?
oxyen hydrogen carbon and nitrogen
What are 3 protein fibers found in cytoskeleton?
1. A network of microtubules mainly in ectoplasm2. cytoplasmic network of microfilaments (actin filaments)3. Intermidiate fillamentsthe main protein of cytoskeleton are tubulin, actin, and myosin.
Actin makes up cytoskeleton fibers called?
The actin that makes up cytoskeleton fibers are called microfilaments. They are the thinnest filaments of the cytoskeleton a structure found in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells.Ê
