Journal ArticleDOI
Myosin-dependent endoplasmic reticulum motility and F-actin organization in plant cells
Haruko Ueda,Etsuo Yokota,Natsumaro Kutsuna,Tomoo Shimada,Kentaro Tamura,Teruo Shimmen,Seiichiro Hasezawa,Valerian V. Dolja,Ikuko Hara-Nishimura +8 more
TL;DR: A model whereby dynamic three-way interactions between ER, F-actin, and myosins determine the architecture and movement patterns of the ER strands, and cause cytosol hauling traditionally defined as cytoplasmic streaming is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytoplasmic streaming in plants.
Teruo Shimmen,Etsuo Yokota +1 more
TL;DR: Successful biochemical and biophysical approaches to studying myosins have extensively promoted the understanding of the molecular mechanism underlying these phenomena.
Journal ArticleDOI
Higher plant myosin XI moves processively on actin with 35 nm steps at high velocity
Motoki Tominaga,Hiroaki Kojima,Etsuo Yokota,Hidefumi Orii,R. Nakamori,Eisaku Katayama,Eisaku Katayama,Michael Anson,Teruo Shimmen,Kazuhiro Oiwa +9 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that myosin XI is highly specialized for generation of fast processive movement with concomitantly low forces.
Journal ArticleDOI
The sliding theory of cytoplasmic streaming: fifty years of progress.
TL;DR: Progress in studies on cytoplasmic streaming over the past 50 years is reviewed; the role of the actin–myosin system in various plant cell functions is becoming evident.
Journal ArticleDOI
Participation of Ca^ in cessation of cytoplasmic streaming induced by membrane excitation in Characeae internodal cells
TL;DR: It is concluded that a transient increase in the Ca2+ concentration in the cy toplasm directly stops the cytoplasmic streaming.
