Chapter 18, Problem 24Q

(A)

Summary Introduction

To explain: The effect of injecting an antibody that binds to the myosin molecules along actin filament in cells having chromosomes moving during anaphase.

Concept introduction: Antibodies are used by the plasma cells to defend against the invading pathogen. The property of the antibody being able to bind to another protein is exploited for various studies in biology. One such study is using an antibody to bind to a suitable protein and thereby hinder its function. Function of few proteins is studied using this process. Myosin proteins are those that bind on to actin microfilaments of the cell cytoskeleton.

(B)

Summary Introduction

To explain: The effect of injecting an antibody that binds to the myosin molecules along actin filament in cells undergoing cytokinesis.

Concept introduction: Antibodies are used by the plasma cells to defend against the invading pathogen. The property of the antibody being able to bind to another protein is exploited for various studies in biology. One such study is using an antibody to bind to a suitable protein and thereby hinder its function. Myosin proteins are those that bind on to actin microfilaments of the cell cytoskeleton. They play an important role in muscle contraction and cytokinesis.
