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

Myosins are a diverse family of actin-based molecular motors that appeared early in eukaryotic evolution. Just how early, and how diverse, has begun to become clear from work that appears in this issue of PNAS (1) and recent work from Nature (2). For most of its existence, the term “myosin” applied only to the actin-activated ATPase that forms the ...

Discovery of Viral Myosin Genes With Complex Evolutionary History Within Plankton
Nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDVs) infect diverse eukaryotes and form a group of viruses with capsids encapsulating large genomes. Recent studies are increasingly revealing a spectacular array of functions encoded in their genomes, including ...

The folding and assembly of myosin motor proteins is essential for most movement processes at the cellular, but also at the organism level. Importantly, myosins, which represent a very diverse family of proteins, require the activity of general and specialized folding factors to develop their full motor function.

Myosins VIII and XI play distinct roles in reproduction and transport of tobacco mosaic virus.
Viruses are obligatory parasites that depend on host cellular factors for their replication as well as for their local and systemic movement to establish infection.

Elevated levels of the metabolic by-products, including acidosis (i.e., high [H+]) and phosphate (Pi) are putative agents of muscle fatigue; however, the mechanism through which they affect myosin’s function remain unclear. To elucidate these mechanisms,

Thick filament‐associated myosin undergoes frequent replacement at the tip of the thick filament
Myosin plays a fundamental role in muscle contraction. Approximately 300 myosins form a bipolar thick filament, in which myosin is continuously replaced by protein turnover.

Distribution and evolution of stable single α-helices (SAH domains) in myosin motor proteins. [PDF]
Stable single-alpha helices (SAHs) are versatile structural elements in many prokaryotic and eukaryotic proteins acting as semi-flexible linkers and constant force springs.
