  1. Aster (cell biology)

    An aster is a cell biology cellular structure shaped like a star symbol star , formed around each centrosome during mitosis in an animal cell. ref Campell Biology , p.221 ref Astral rays, composed of microtubules , radiate from the centrosphere and look like a cloud. During mitosis, there are four stages of cell division Prophase , Metaphase , Anaphase , and Telophase . During prophase, two aster covered centrosomes migrate to opposite sides of the Cell nucleus nucleus in preparation of mitotic spindle formation. During metaphase, the astral rays connect to the lined up chromosomes at their centromere . Afterwards, during anaphase, the astral rays pull the chromosomes apart into its individual chromatids and pull them towards the centrosomes, located at opposite ends of the cell. This allows the cell to divide properly with each daughter cell containing full replicas of chromosomes. In some cells, the positions of the asters also determine the site of cell divisions.

An example of this begin an extension of a thylakoid within a chloroplast, linking a thylakoid within one wikt granum granum to one in another. They are the sites of photosystem I . Simply put, lamellae may be considered as a pair of membranes containing chlorophyll . Chloroplasts are characterized by a system of membranes embedded in a hydrophobic proteinaceous matrix, or stroma. The basic unit of the membrane system is a flattened single vesicle called the thylakoid thylakoids stack into grana sing, granum . All the thylakoids of a granum are connected with each other, and the grana are connected by intergranal lamellae . Oxford dictionary of Biochemistry and molecular biology, Oxford University press It is placed between the two primary cell walls of two plant cells and made up of intracellular matrix. The lamella comprises a mixture of polygalacturons D galacturonic acid and neutral carbohydrates. It is soluble in the pectinase enzyme.

  1. Tether (cell biology)

    Unreferenced date December 2009 Otheruses tether Biological cell biology cell s which form Cell adhesion bonds with a substrate and are at the same time subject to a flow can form long thin membrane cylinders called tethers , which connect the adherent area to the main body of the cell. Under physiological conditions, neutrophil tethers can extend to several micrometers. In biochemistry, a tether is a molecule that carries 1 or 2 carbon intermediates from one active site to another. They are commonly used in lipid synthesis, gluconeogenesis, conversion of pyruvate into Acetyl CoA via PDH complex. Common tethers are lipoate lysine residue complex associated with dihydrolipoyl transacetylase, which is used for carrying hydroxyethyl from hydroxyethyl TPP. This compound forms Acetyl CoA, a convergent molecule in metabolic pathways. Another tether is biotin lysine residue complex associated with pyruvate carboxylase, an enzyme which plays an importqnt role in gluconeogenesis. It is involved in the production of oxaloacetate from pyruvate. One of the biological ethers used in the synthesis of fats is a mercaptoethylamine pantothenate complex associated with an acyl carrier protein.

  1. Midbody (cell biology)

    The midbody or Flemming body is a transient structure found in mammal ian Cell biology cell s and is present near the end of cytokinesis just prior to the complete separation of the dividing cells. The structure was first described by Walther Flemming in 1891 . ref cite journal author Paweletz N title Walther Flemming pioneer of mitosis research journal Nat. Rev. Mol. Cell Biol. volume 2 issue 1 pages 72 5 year 2001 month January pmid 11413469 doi 10.1038 35048077 url ref The midbody structure contains bundles of microtubules derived from the mitotic spindle which compacts during the final stages of cell division. It has a typical diameter of 1 micrometre and a length of 3 to 5 micrometres ref cite journal author Mullins JM, McIntosh JR title Isolation and initial characterization of the mammalian midbody journal J. Cell Biol. volume 94 issue 3 pages 654 61 year 1982 month September pmid 7130277 pmc 2112229 doi 10.1083 jcb.94.3.654 url http www.jcb.org cgi pmidlookup?view long&pmid 7130277 ref . Aside from microtubules it also contains various proteins involved in cytokinesis , asymmetric cell division , and chromosome segregation . The midbody is important for completing the final stages of cytokinesis, a process called abscission , although its precise role in these processes is not clear. ref cite journal author Skop AR, Liu H, Yates J, Meyer BJ, Heald R title Dissection of the mammalian midbody proteome reveals conserved cytokinesis mechanisms journal Science volume 305 issue 5680 pages 61 6 year 2004 month July pmid 15166316 doi 10.1126 science.1097931 url ref .
