14 авг. 2015 г. · The Bacterial Cytoskeleton: an Intermediate Filament-Like Function in Cell Shape. Speaker: 林貞杏. Commentator: 吳俊忠老師. Room: 601.

A strikingly intermediate filament (IF)-like cytoskeleton, composed of crescentin, is also present in Caulobacter crescentus and determines its specific cell ...

Crescentin is a protein which is a bacterial relative of the intermediate filaments found in eukaryotic cells. Just as tubulins and actins, the other major ...

We propose that IF-like filaments of crescentin assemble into a helical structure, which by applying its geometry to the cell, generates a vibrioid or helical ...
