No biological system has been studied by more diverse approaches than the actin-based molecular motor myosin. Biophysics, biochemistry, physiology, classical genetics and molecular genetics have ...
Our skin and mucous membranes are protected by epithelial cells, which form a barrier that defends the body from the outside ...
Two key aspects of myosin-actin cycling use the energy made available by the hydrolysis of ATP. First, the action of the reaching myosin S1 head uses the energy released after the ATP molecule is ...
Our skin and mucous membranes are protected by epithelial cells. This 'barrier' tissue performs its function thanks to specialized structures called 'junctions'. They ensure cell cohesion and regulate ...
