Question
Chapter 4.4, Problem 2CS
Summary Introduction
To determine: A model of a circular structure formed by SAS -6 proteins and also indicate the proteins that make up this structure.
Introduction: SAS-6 is a key protein that forms an important component of the radial spokes present in axoneme. This protein also determines the nine-fold symmetry as depicted by doublet microtubules. A group of different proteins makes the circular structure of SAS-6 protein.

Descrive in 2-3 sentences an in vitro experiment that differentiates between the Arp2/3 complex’ ability to associate with both the side of the ‘mother’ actin filament and with the barbed end of the ‘mother’ actin filament. Your experiment should take advantage of capping protein (binds and blocks barbed ends), and direct visualization of actin filaments.
Multipass transmembrane proteins synthesized by ribosomes on the rough endoplasmic reticulum generally have which of the following arrangements of start-transfer and stop-transfer signals?

only one start signal, but multiple stop signals (to allow only one transmembrane region)
only one start signal, and only one stop signal (to allow only one transmembrane region)
only one stop signal, and only one start signal (to allow only one transmembrane region)
Dynamic instability causes microtubules to either grow or shrink. Consider a microtubule that is
in its shrinking phase. What must happen at the end of the microtubule in order for it to stop
