This pulls the membrane into a different shape relative to the cell cortex.

The infraciliature is one of the main component of the cell cortex.

During G1, the mother centriole attaches at the cell cortex and forms the cilium.

In plant cells, the cell cortex is reinforced by cortical microtubules underlying the plasma membrane.

The Pom1 protein kinase (green) is localized to the cell cortex, with the highest concentration at the cell tips.

Sapp suggests that "Just's theorizing on the cell cortex [in this work] was unsurpassed".

Astral microtubules develop in the actin skeleton and interact with the cell cortex to aid in spindle orientation.

Their intracellular domain of membrane-spanning core protein interacts with actin cytoskeleton and signaling molecules in the cell cortex.

Finally, a portion of the tagged Aurora B localized to the equatorial cell cortex, having been transported to this location by astral microtubules.

Animal cells commonly have a cell cortex under the cell membrane that contains a large number of microfilaments, which precludes the presence of organelles.

The inner, granular mass is called the endoplasm and the outer, clear and glassy layer is called the cell cortex or the ectoplasm.

CLASP1 belongs to a family of microtubule-associated proteins involved in attachment of microtubules to the cell cortex in animals and plants.

Environmental factors such as cell-cell contact and hypotonicity might place additional demands on the equatorial contractile apparatus that go beyond the intrinsic stiffness of the cell cortex.

The first two grooves sometimes meet at the vegetal pole, but we found no evidence in living or fixed eggs that they extend significantly beneath the yolk cell cortex.

However, only one or two garpike cleavage furrows even extend to the vegetal pole, and these are nothing more than shallow grooves in the yolk cell cortex.

This actin binding protein was named coronin after its strong immunolocalisation in the actin rich crown like extension of the cell cortex in D. discoidium.

The cell cortex is a specialized layer of cytoplasm on the inner face of the plasma membrane that functions as a mechanical support of the plasma membrane.

Out of the three MHCKs, only GFP-MHCK-C appeared to be concentrated in the cell cortex (Fig.

A contractile ring, made of non-muscle myosin II and actin filaments, assembles equatorially (in the middle of the cell) at the cell cortex (adjacent to the cell membrane).

In contrast to GFP-Myosin II, GFP-labelled MHCK-A and B did not concentrate in the cell cortex (Fig.

Cell motility, adhesion, and cytokinesis, and other functions of the cell cortex are mediated by the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton and recent evidence suggests a role for formin homology (FH) proteins in these processes.

The cell cortex is attached to the inner (cytosolic) face of the plasma membrane in cells where the spectrin proteins and actin microfilaments form a mesh-like structure much like a fishnet except that it can be broken and reformed.

Mammalian Drf3 contains a CRIB-like motif within its GBD for binding to Cdc42, which is required for Cdc42 to activate and guide Drf3 towards the cell cortex where it remodels the actin skeleton.

In contrast to the spatially restricted functions of CAP, Ena, and Abl, profilin and cofilin were shown to regulate actin filament formation throughout the cell cortex, a more global function that matches the results obtained in cell culture experiments.
