The Journal of Cell Biology, 2001 We suggest that the vertebrate myosin-I field adopt a common nomenclature system based on the names adopted by the Human Genome Organization (HUGO). At present, the myosin-I nomenclature is very confusing; not only are several systems in use, but several different genes have been given the same name.

eLife, 2014 Plant cells divide using the phragmoplast, a microtubule-based structure that directs vesicles secretion to the nascent cell plate. The phragmoplast forms at the cell center and expands to reach a specified site at the cell periphery, tens or hundreds of

Biochemical Journal, 1935 Whereas most proteins so far studied show spreading at their isoelectric points or on strongly acid solutions (we have examined more or less thoroughly ovalbumin, zein, gliadin, insulin, pepsin, trypsin, ovoglobulin, ovomucoid, caseinogen, globin and haemoglobin) some proteins do not spread, when tested by our usual technique. Gelatin is a bad spreader

Myosin II motor proteins with different functions determine the fate of lamellipodia extension during cell spreading. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Non-muscle cells express multiple myosin-II motor proteins myosin IIA, myosin IIB and myosin IIC transcribed from different loci in the human genome. Due to a significant homology in their sequences, these ubiquitously expressed myosin II motor proteins ...

Diverse integrin adhesion stoichiometries caused by varied actomyosin activity [PDF]
Open Biology, 2017 Cells in an organism are subjected to numerous sources of external and internal forces, and are able to sense and respond to these forces. Integrin-mediated adhesion links the extracellular matrix outside cells to the cytoskeleton inside, and ...

Contiguity and Structural Impacts of a Non-Myosin Protein within the Thick Filament Myosin Layers
Biology, 2021 Myosin dimers arranged in layers and interspersed with non-myosin densities have been described by cryo-EM 3D reconstruction of the thick filament in Lethocerus at 5.5 Å resolution.

Secondary Structure of the Novel Myosin Binding Domain WYR and Implications within Myosin Structure
Biology, 2021 Structural changes in the myosin II light meromyosin (LMM) that influence thick filament mechanical properties and muscle function are modulated by LMM-binding proteins.

Myosin II filament dynamics in actin networks revealed with interferometric scattering microscopy [PDF]
, 2020 The plasma membrane and the underlying cytoskeletal cortex constitute active platforms for a variety of cellular processes. Recent work has shown that the remodeling acto-myosin network modifies local membrane organization, but the molecular details are ...

Characterization and analysis of myosin gene family in the whitefly (Bemisia tabaci)
AIMS Molecular Science, 2022 Myosin is an actin-based motor protein that widely exists in muscle tissue and non-muscle tissue, and myosin of a diverse subfamily has obvious differences in structure and cell function.
