Insulin has diverse effects on cells, including stimulation of glucose transport, gene expression, and alterations of cell morphology. The hormone mediates these effects by activation of signaling pathways which utilize, 1) adaptor molecules such as the insulin receptor substrates (IRS), the Src and

Certain components of the cytoskeleton play a role in yeast fluid-phase endocytosis as well as in endocytosis of the -factor when this pheromone is bound to its 7-transmembrane segment receptor. The yeast maltose transporter is a 12-transmembrane segment protein that, under certain physiological con
## Abstract Mature oligodendrocytes are characterized by their numerous cytoplasmic extensions and flat membranous sheets. These sheets contain an extensive cytoskeletal network of microtubules (MTs) that maintain the cellular morphology, are specifically important for cellular sorting, and provide
## Abstract Oligodendrocytes, the myelin‐forming cells of the central nervous system, are in culture characterized by an elaborate process network, terminating in flat membranous sheets that are rich in myelin‐specific proteins and lipids, and spirally wrap axons forming a compact insulating layer
## Abstract The actin‐ and myosin‐binding protein, caldesmon (CaD) is an essential component of the cytoskeleton in smooth muscle and non‐muscle cells and is involved in the regulation of cell contractility, division, and assembly of actin filaments. CaD is abundantly present in endothelial cells (
