Diminished climing fiber innervation of Purkinje cells in the cerebellum of myosin Va mutant mice and rats [PDF]
Myosin Va is an actin-based molecular motor that is involved in organelle transport and membrane trafficking. Here, we explored the role of myosin Va in the formation of synaptic circuitry by examining climbing fiber (CF) innervation of Purkinje cells ...

Structure and Function of Myosin Isoforms in Adult Chicken Hindlimb Muscles [PDF]
Although large accumulation of sequence data is published for a variety of myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoforms, the meaning of heterogeneity among the amino acid sequences remains unclear as to the key contractile and biochemical properties of muscle ...

Fesselin, an intrinsically disordered smooth muscle protein, organizes and stabilizes actin-myosin and myosin [PDF]
Fesselin is an intrinsically disordered protein that is known to bind a large variety of cytoskeletal proteins. The proteins fesselin is known to bind include: actin (Leinweber et al. 1999), [alpha]-actinin (Pham et al. 2006), calmodulin (Schroeter et al.

The role of Rab27a in the regulation of melanosome distribution within retinal pigment epithelial cells [PDF]
Melanosomes within the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) of mammals have long been thought to exhibit no movement in response to light, unlike fish and amphibian RPE.

Effects of myosin heavy chain (MHC) plasticity induced by HMGCoA-reductase inhibition on skeletal muscle functions. [PDF]
The rate-limiting step of cholesterol biosynthetic pathway is catalyzed by 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme reductase (HGMR), whose inhibitors, the statins, widely used in clinical practice to treat hypercholesterolemia, often cause myopathy, and ...

Amino acids containing L-Arginine (Arg), L-Lysine (Lys) and L-Histidine (His) are recognized to increase the solubility of myosin at low ionic strength, but there is a difference in the researchers’ views on their effects on the secondary structure of ...
