23
Q

Kinesins movement is coupled to

A

ATP hydrolysis

24
Q

Kinesin 1 is tetramer

A

2 heavy chains
2 light chains

25
Q

Kinesin 1 has four region

A

-globular head region: ATP hydrolyzing engine
-neck region: attach head to stalk
-coiled helical stalk region: provide flexibility
-light chain region: attach kinesin to proteins

26
Q

KRP head

A

Evolutionarily conserved
Similar motor function

27
Q

KRP tail

A

Highly divergent
(Reflecting the cargo diversity)

28
Q

All kinesin have

A

Motor domains

29
Q

Kinesins are classified based on

A

Structure

30
Q

Some kinesins from —— some ——

A

Homodimer
Heterodimer

31
Q

Family —— is minus end directed

A

Kinesin 14

32
Q

Kinesin mode of movement ( hand-over-hand)

A

1- leading heavy chain bind ATP
2- ATP binding causes conformational change (trailing heavy chain swing forward)
3- trailing heavy chain find new MT binding site and release ADP
4- new trailing head hydrolyze atp to adp and p

33
Q

Dyneins

A

Cytoplasmic dyneins: high processivity toward minus end
Dynein doesn’t directly interact with cargo: requires adaptor molecule: dynactin and spectirin

axonemal Dyneins: generate motility in cilia (power stroke)

34
Q

Kinesin and dynein

A

Move similar materials inopposite direction over same railway
Organelles may bind kinesin and dynein spontaneously

35
Q

Cilia

A

-Most cell have one to many cilia
-Both unicellular and multicellular eukaryotes
-Generate a force perpendicular ti cilium

36
Q

Cilia kinds

A

Motile cilia: move fluid through tracts
Non-motile: cilia having sensory functions

37
Q

Flagella

A
  • move cell through fluid environment
  • same diameter but much longer than cilia
  • one or few per cell
  • force generated parallel to flagellum
38
Q

Cilium/flagella share common structure

A

Axoneme

39
Q

Cilium/flagellum emrge from ——

A

Basal body

40
Q

Between axoneme and basal body

A

Transition zone

41
Q

Transition zone

A

42
Q

Axoneme

A

Nine peripheral MT doublets surrounding central pair of single MT

43
Q

Each MT doublet

A

One 13 subunit
One 10-11 subunit

44
Q

Central tubes in axoneme are enclosed by

A

45
Q

A

Elastic protein based link

46
Q

Pair of arms — inner and outer

47
Q

Assembly and dis’s assembly of cilium and flagellum required

A

Movement of structural components called

A

Intraflagellar transport (IFT)
Occurs between peripheral doublet and cell membrane

49
Q

A

(Plus end directed motor)

50
Q

A

(Minus end directed motor)
Return IFT trains to cell body

51
Q

Axonemal dynein

A

Cause MT sliding within the axoneme allowing cilia and flagella to bend (no change in overall length of MT)

52
Q

Stem axonemal dynein
