Document Summary
Chapter 6 actin aminopeptidase basal body cell fractionation cell wall central vacuole centriole centrosome chloroplast chromatin. A globular protein that links into chains, two of which twist helically about each other, forming microfilaments in muscle and other contractile elements in cells. An enzyme found within the small intestine that splits off one amino acid at a time, beginning at the opposite end of the polypeptide containing a free carboxyl group. A eukaryotic cell organelle consisting of a 9 + 0 arrangement of microtubule triplets; may organize the microtubule assembly of a cilium or flagellum; structurally identical to a centriole. The disruption of a cell and separation of its organelles by centrifugation. A protective layer external to the plasma membrane in plant cells, prokaryotes, fungi, and some protists. In plant cells, the wall is formed of cellulose fibers embedded in a polysaccharide-protein matrix.
