Cytoskeleton functions are difficult to assay due to
1. Formation of large protein complex
2. Force generation without chemical change

Figure 16–51 Myosin II.
(A) A myosin II molecule is composed of two heavy chains (each about 2000 amino acids long (green) and four light chains (blue). The light chains are of two distinct types, and one copy of each type is present on each myosin head. Dimerization occurs when the two a helices of the heavy chains wrap around each other to form a coiled-coil, driven by the association of regularly spaced hydrophobic amino acids (see Figure 3–11). The coiled-coil arrangement makes an extended rod in solution, and this part of the molecule is called the tail. (B) The two globular heads and the tail can be clearly seen in electron micrographs of myosin molecules shadowed with platinum. (B, courtesy of David Shotton.)

Figure 16–75 Effect on the heart of a subtle mutation in cardiac myosin.
Left, normal heart from a 6-day old mouse pup. Right, heart from a pup with a point mutation in both copies of its cardiac myosin gene, changing Arg 403 to Gln. Both atria are greatly enlarged (hypertrophic), and the mice die within a few weeks of birth. (From D. Fatkin et al., J. Clin. Invest. 103:147, 1999.)

Figure 16–50 The dramatic effects of Rac, Rho, and Cdc42 on actin organization in fibroblasts.
In each case, the actin filaments have been labeled with fluorescent phalloidin, and focal contacts have been located with an antibody against vinculin. (A) Serum-starved fibroblasts have actin filaments primarily in the cortex, and relatively few focal contacts. (B) Microinjection of a constitutively activated form of Rho causes the rapid assembly of many prominent stress fibers and focal contacts. (C) Microinjection of a constitutively activated form of Rac, a closely related monomeric GTPase, causes the formation of an enormous lamellipodium that extends from the entire circumference of the cell. (D) Microinjection of a constitutively activated form of Cdc42, another Rho family member, causes the protrusion of many long filopodia at the cell periphery that form adhesive contacts with the substratum. The distinct global effects of these three GTPases on the organization of the actin cytoskeleton are mediated by the actions of dozens of other protein molecules that are regulated by the GTPases. Many of these target proteins resemble the various actin-associated proteins that we have discussed in this chapter. (From A. Hall, Science 279:509–514, 1998. © AAAS.)

Figure 16–90 A model for protrusion of the actin meshwork at the leading edge.
Two time points during advance of the lamellipodium are illustrated, with newly assembled structures at the later time point shown in a lighter color. Nucleation is mediated by the ARP complex at the front. Newly nucleated actin filaments are attached to the sides of preexisting filaments, primarily at a 70° angle. Filaments elongate, pushing the plasma membrane forward because of some sort of anchorage of the array behind. At a steady rate, actin filament plus ends become capped. After newly polymerized actin subunits hydrolyze their bound ATP in the filament lattice, the filaments become susceptible to depolymerization by cofilin. This cycle causes a spatial separation between net filament assembly at the front and net filament disassembly at the rear, so that the actin filament network as a whole can move forward, even though the individual filaments within it remain stationary with respect to the substratum.
