so there are six dfferen tyeps of interemdiate filametns 210 cell tyeps 7-0 genes that encode for this emaning that there is 3 per cell type. they are highlty sepcialized


the basic unit of these are stupid ahhh dimers the dimers are going to have a hea dna tail region. another thing is that the dimer are going to be n and c terminus and are going to be hea dna dtail the tail is the C and tha tials ar elarger andother thing is that htey have a ahelics so the a helics of eahc monoemr are oging ot o form the coiled coled reiogn and they are going to have amino acid rsides and their 7th amino aci resie are going ot be hhydrophobic and are gong to face each other and hide. another thinsi s that they dont need energy no nucletides no gtp no atpin order to assemble and sinc ehtey ar enot using enegryg they are oging to be in equlaibrium state. another thing is that they are going dimer + dimer is going ot form a tetramer, tetramer to tetramer side by side is going to form a protofilemnt and 4 of those on top are going toform a protofibril and four of htose are going to form a intermedial fialment.


The first intermediate filament to evolve is the stupid add lamin with thier nclearization

so after animals divered from anila si shwen they lost htier nuclarilzoaiton singal dn their prenyaltion ability so that is what that is


oh i forhot to mention that htey hav eno polarity intemredial filaments hav NO polarity they ahve no poalrity they hav eno poalrity because when the C and N attach to other C and n’s they are going to attach oposudte of eachother and that is going to lead to them not facing eachother and another thing is that faster let faster

os no polarity this was seen hrtough the goldmaen expeiremnt where they used a gold partile and antibody iwht an electron mciropty adn saw that the c’s are opposite and this is convserv ed through all faimilesyes



immunogold immuno gold



four protilfment smake. protofibile and foru protifbils wrpa aroudn eachother ot make and intermediate filament.


intermeidal filametn are most stable and strongest

so


the FRAP flosune recover after photo bleacing they were ablet o photbleac a segment of the sutpid ad ifnetiemralmetn and they saw that basially what happeeisn is that

\

frap photo bleaching - frap photo bealching is igong to allow us to see the intermeidla itelmtns recoer and it takes 20 -1 hour


acitn iflemns take 1-2 mins so we did the raph phtobtleachign in order ot see how long it takes foru flosucnece to come back another thing is



so they did the FRAP - was used to see how long it takes for them to recover

ad the flousce labale dmonoemrs to track if monoerms area ddign to exisitng areas. it toike 20


so they microinjected buotion lavele dkertine into clels


so frap and mcirubinected labeled keritn into cells

this is micronijected biotinc labeled keratin into cells

so anotehr


so we got the FRAP and the microinjected labeled flouscent monomers.


9intermeidate filemtns dont need acessory proteins in order to help them assemble


intermediate filetns dont need acessory proteins in order to help them assemble



so they used frpa adn the flouscnent labale dmonomer so tcheck how long it takes for repair to happen s



so these arent assembled with no help of no protiens awaht they did is that they injected intermediat eiflmetns dont neeed accessory protei in order to help them assemnle if u put dimer tetramer sin a cell they willfrom the inermediat eiflemtns if u take monoerm that build two tpes of intermeidl filemtnthey will form indnetluy form eahc other they dont need eac other to build.


thsi si micdrfinjected into


intemre dont need acessory protien in order ot help dsasmebl putting a dimer a temetra


if u inejct antibodies that block the asembly nothing will heppen to the cells showin



so in order to check their turn over they did the frap pothobelaching and then they did the fluonen tmonomer


to chekc whathappens to a cell if they stop intermediate assmebly hey to buil tw


they wanted to test what hapepns to a real orgnaism so what htey did was . is



Keratine i saother Intermediate filament -

what happens is that ekratine the intermediate filametn


there is keratine 10 on top and kertin 14 and we want to dirupt ekratie 14 to see what hapens in a live animal and basically before the CRISPR theu are going to going to make a trangenic animal with a dmonintant negative nc it shar do tget recssive and knowut both genes os htey se a engative domainant nege that is going to caus e a loss of ufnciton.the gene is going to bind to the fialment to sto p the addito of another monomer and this is goin gto amek a mutant protien that is going to stop and mke bad non funciotnal intermeidate filemtns an itnermeial fimetns fro one cell are going to bind to the other iF’s through transmembrean chanensl and that is going to hodl them tightly with eachother and if we basially mess with this we see that th emcie are more liel to get blsiters. and when we did this to a culture pobsvoisu teya rearont gonn gag emblsiters uc z thneya rent moing. Keraitn is going to bascialye ovlve form outside hard shelle insects.


diases of keratin 14 or 4 are going to cause blstier kera nail and ee probeslm



so back to it again


]

so we go tkerait 10 on top and 14 the bottom layer and we dirutp keratine 14.


pokei two more we got demsisn desmins are for muscle cels. demsins are formuscle clels. demsins are for msucle clel desmisns are for muscle clel desmisn are for muscle clels. demsisns are for msucle cells desmisn are for mucle clels.





desmins are for muscl cell they are going to bind to z disc fo sacromers togehta rnw tihtout hte se demsins not holding them together the msucle ownt be abelt ot withoodl form mcontiroan and ead te msucle fialure. nerosm are intemredi filemtsn neruon can exted

micrubtuels re goig to be tube like strucutres and they are going to be fromed from dimers. the dimers are going ot have alpha and beta and the laphna is always going ot be in the grp forma nd teh beta is oigng to be abel to hdyrlzoyes hte gtp to gdp.


so the alpha nad beta the point wher ehtey


so the dimers make protiflema dn then protilfme


the dimer make protielfmet and then mcirbutbesl

the alpha enc to lapha dn tehbet ana dbe tthe potn wher eht lapha na beta touch are giong ot be the seams. this is simiarl to acitn ebcaus eht eifmere dimera in tint ehcytpla sma in the grp form


so the intermdilemt aifelmts

make protiflmetn profbiel then intemridal

the mcirbutl jsut make protienile sna dhte mcintiels tueb the b is abel tho dbryaoen


onc ehteyr ein the polyer they cannt ofrom ve gto whiel theuyrein the polyer.


s owhen theyre in the polyermer htey cant oceo rhte gdp theyre in the polery . the idemr is added ot the plsu end, its in the gtp form most o fhte tiubulin is in the utbilina in the gdp fomr. it addsonot hte plsu end hdyrpzlyes and cant realse



once theyre in the polyer they cant remove gdp theyre in the polyer.

Once theyre in the polyer they cannot




once theyre in the polyermer they cannot remove gdp


So the monomer so once the monoemrs attahc to the polyemr the gtp is hdrlzie and hte gdp canot be removed until the monomer i srealsed . the idmer is added to the plus end. its is in the gtp form mosot. fhteublib in the utublin the gdp form it adds onto the plsu end hyrlzoya n catn relase cane chan from gdp to gtp afte rht emonoerm realse form polymer.


onc ehteyre in the polyer



ohhhh each dimer is made of a tubul and b tubulin


So the idmer ocmes into the plus end and the b is hdyrlzoed








so bascially the mcirutuels are oging ot be straw liek and the idmes are oigng o to ahve alapha dn ebet utbulina nd the beta is alwaus ogng ot hdrualon the alpah snever and bcaislclyw aht hahpens is tha t


the dimer is going to attach tho the plus end and the b is going ot hdyraloz and up ituunil the monerms ir elased ofmr the polymer the gdp cannot befrmove.


so the strucutre fo the filia ng glaggeum is going ot be peiciton of hte sruface of a cell in orde rot move subtanc eiwlgl eon the soie


so where is micurbutles? they are going to be in the fillia nd flagellum. the iflia nad glagellum, the fillia and flagelum; they are going ot be in the fillii and flageum that is going ot be on the sufae oc a cell in order to move usbtan gen a diwglgle ont he usrcac.e the filaiu dn teh fielmt mcibrueslar eoging ot be in the iflia nd flagme that is going to mvoe sutbance and iwll ont he surjca

So whem mtitois happen we are ogng ot disassmeblthe cmirbutels ad rebuild to beomc psinld epoels that ar going to be used to segreate thechocmoems to beocme tow dualt clels.


so when mittois shappen swe idaisbel the mcibtuel and they wer are oging ot rebudintopsible poels to segerat eh chormoe sto beom teo wduatlher.s
