In vertebrate and invertebrate nonmuscle myosins, light-and heavy-chain phosphorylation regulate myosin assembly into filaments, and interaction with actin. Vertebrate non-muscle myosins can exist in vitro in three main states, either 'folded ' (assembly-blocked) or ' extended' (assembly-competen t)

## Abstract In anaplastic large cell lymphoma, the __ALK__ gene at 2p23 is known to be fused to __NPM__, __TPM3__, __TPM4__, __TFG__, __ATIC__, __CLTC__, __MSN__, and __ALO17__. All of these translocations result in the expression of chimeric __ALK__ transcripts that are translated into fusion prot
Skeletal muscle obtained from 2 patients with congenital nernaline rnyopathy (CNM) and from a healthy control was analyzed by 1-and 2dimensional gel electrophoresis. In total extracts, an increase of aactinin by a factor of 2:3 was found for CNM muscle as compared with the control. One-and two-dimen
Fluorescently labeled smooth muscle myosin II is often used to study myosin II dynamics in non-muscle cells. In order to provide more specific tools for tracking non-muscle myosin II in living cytoplasm, fluorescent analogues of non-muscle myosin IIA and IIB were prepared and characterized. In addit
