14 Terms

1
Daughter cells
________ are created during cytokinesis through cleavage.
New cards
2
Microproteins Bimc
________, CENP- E, and cytosolic dynein move into and stay in all spindles.
New cards
3
GTPases
________ have a branch of tubulin that belong to the same family, and those tubulins polymerize into microtubules which are small hollow cylindrical structures which a diameter of 25 nm.
New cards
4
dyneins
Dynactin links ________ to their cargoes which consist of vesicles and chromosomes.
New cards
5
Dynactin
________ is a multiprotein complex that also works to bind microtubules.
New cards
6
Kinesins
________ work as dimers with head domains that bind microtubules and ATP and tail domains that bind other cargo or vesicles.
New cards
7
Protofilaments
________ are formed by dimeric aB- tubulin which interact with end to end, and ________ are laterally associated with microtubules.
New cards
8
structural polarity
The (+) of microtubules lose and gain subunits, and microtubules have ________.
New cards
9
Drugs
________ like colchicine and taxol can help with cancer as they disrupt microtubules and provide an antimitotic effect.
New cards
10
MAPs
________ can control cytosolic microtubule depolymerization.
New cards
11
microtubule dynamics
Both ________ and microtubule motors are needed for chromosomal transport to the opposite poles at anaphase.
New cards
12
Mitosis
________ is the process of replicated chromosomes being separated and partitioned into two daughter cells.
New cards
13
Motor protein
________- mediated interactions help establish the orientation of spindles.
New cards

Kinesins
________ move cargo to the (+) side and dyneins move cargo to the-) (side.
