Particle movement in heliozoan axopods associated with lateral displacement of highly ordered membrane domains.
نویسنده
چکیده
Freeze-fracture studies reveal that extrusive organelles displaying saltatory particle movements in centrohelidian axopod are attached to highly ordered domains within the plasma membrane. It is postulated that the motive force for lateral displacement of these membrane domains with the adhering organelle is located immediately underneath the plasma membrane being either part of the peripheral membrane proteins or attached filaments alined parallel to the axopodial microtubules. The attachment domain is interpreted as a "frozen" membrane area preventing untimely organelle discharge by membrane fusion.

The NG domain of the prokaryotic signal recognition protein Ffh is a two-domain GTPase that comprises part of the prokaryotic signal recognition particle (SRP) that functions in co-translational targeting of proteins to the membrane. The interface between the N and G domains includes two highly conserved sequence motifs and is adjacent in sequence and structure to one of the conserved GTPase si...
متن کاملAssessment of Lateral Displacements using Neuro-Fuzzy Group Method of Data Handling Systems
Lateral spreading is one of the most destructive effects of liquefaction. Liquefaction is known as one of the major causes of ground failure related to earthquake. This phenomenon is likely to occur when the rate of earthquake-induced excess pore water pressure buildup exceeds the rate of drainage. Estimation of the hazard of lateral spreading requires characterization of subsurface conditions....
متن کاملAssessing the Nature of Lipid Raft Membranes
The paradigm of biological membranes has recently gone through a major update. Instead of being fluid and homogeneous, recent studies suggest that membranes are characterized by transient domains with varying fluidity. In particular, a number of experimental studies have revealed the existence of highly ordered lateral domains rich in sphingomyelin and cholesterol (CHOL). These domains, called ...

In this paper a control system has been designed to improve traffic conditions in car following maneuver. There are different methods to design a control system. In this paper design approach is based on the Fuzzy sliding mode control (FSMC) system. The aim of designing FSMC system is to achieve safe and desire longitudinal distance and less lateral displacement. In orde...
