FROM THE PREFACE: The original purpose of the First Edition of Physiology of the
Gastrointestinal Tract to collect in one set of volumes the most current and comprehensive …

Permeabilized bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cell monolayers were used to
investigate the mechanism of endothelial cell retraction. Postconfluent endothelial cells …

A 5.6-kilobase cDNA clone has been isolated which includes the entire coding region for the
myosin light chain kinase from rabbit uterine tissue. This cDNA, expressed in COS cells …

The localization of hook-associated proteins (HAP1, HAP2, and HAP3) in Salmonella
typhimurium flagella was studied by using specific antibodies together with a second …

Three isoforms of fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate aldolase were found to bind specifically to the
actin-containing filament of the cytoskeleton and to show tissue-specific binding patterns …

It has been proposed that the carboxyl terminus of the smooth muscle myosin light chain
kinase is expressed as an independent protein. This protein has been purified from tissues …

The first primary structure for a nonmuscle myosin light chain kinase (nmMLCK) has been
determined by elucidation of the cDNA sequence encoding the protein kinase from chicken …

Serum-deprived Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts constitutively form stress fibers at their edges. These
fibers move centripetally towards the perinuclear region where they disassemble. Serum …

During anaphase, distinct populations of microtubules (MTs) form by either centrosome-
dependent or augmin-dependent nucleation. It remains largely unknown whether these …

Intermediate filaments (IFs) undergo specific rearrangements in cells, some aspects of which
can be induced experimentally. Centripetal aggregation of the IF network, for example, can …
