Document Summary

Lecture 18- cell cycle iii: biochemical regulation of mitosis and mechanisms of cytokinesis. First we will talk about the mitotic process and then we"ll talk about cytokinesis or how the cell divides the cytoplasm. There are two different ways that this can happen. First the animal cells where cytokinesis operates from an outside to inside mechanism. Second in plant cells which have a rigid cell wall and they build new plasma membrane from the inside to the outside. They come in two varieties one called the dyneins - a class of motor proteins that track along the microtubules towards the minus end. What you can see here is that the molecule is taking its cargo and moving it towards the minus end of the microtubules. In contrast to that the kinesins are different family of motor proteins and they take their cargo and move towards the plus end. Both of these types of activities are involved in chromosome movement.
