Actin Cytoskeleton and Golgi Involvement in Barley stripe mosaic virus Movement and Cell Wall Localization of Triple Gene Block Proteins. [PDF]
, 2013 Barley stripe mosaic virus (BSMV) induces massive actin filament thickening at the infection front of infected Nicotiana benthamiana leaves. To determine the mechanisms leading to actin remodeling, fluorescent protein fusions of the BSMV triple gene ...

Myosin: Formation and maintenance of thick filaments [PDF]
Animal Science Journal, 2019 AbstractSkeletal muscle consists of bundles of myofibers containing millions of myofibrils, each of which is formed of longitudinally aligned sarcomere structures. Sarcomeres are the minimum contractile unit, which mainly consists of four components: Z‐bands, thin filaments, thick filaments, and connectin/titin.

Biology, 2016 Flightin is a myosin binding protein present in Pancrustacea. In Drosophila, flightin is expressed in the indirect flight muscles (IFM), where it is required for the flexural rigidity, structural integrity, and length determination of thick filaments ...

CryoEM structure of Drosophila flight muscle thick filaments at 7 Å resolution
Life Science Alliance, 2020 Relaxed thick filaments from Drosophila flight muscle show disordered myosin heads, a ribbon arrangement of myosin tails and a novel protein, stretchin-klp, on the filament surface.

The ubiquitin ligase Ozz decreases the replacement rate of embryonic myosin in myofibrils
Physiological Reports, 2021 Myosin, the most abundant myofibrillar protein in skeletal muscle, functions as a motor protein in muscle contraction. Myosin polymerizes into the thick filaments in the sarcomere where approximately 50% of embryonic myosin (Myh3) are replaced within 3 h

IRIS Observations of the Mg II h & k Lines During a Solar Flare [PDF]
, 2015 The bulk of the radiative output of a solar flare is emitted from the chromosphere, which produces enhancements in the optical and UV continuum, and in many lines, both optically thick and thin. We have, until very recently, lacked observations of two of
