  Definition: Chromatin is the DNA/protein/RNA complex extracted from eukaryotic lysed interphase nuclei. Just which of the multitudinous substances present in a nucleus will constitute a part of the extracted material will depend in part on the technique each researcher uses. Furthermore, the composition and properties of chromatin vary from one cell type to the another, during development of a specific cell type, and at different stages (...)

• basal body
  26 January 2005

  Cilia and flagella comprise a microtubular backbone (the ciliary axoneme), which is surrounded by plasma membrane and is nucleated and organized by the basal body, which is a cylindrical structure that consists of nine microtubule triplets and is located underneath the cell membrane.
  Functions
  The centrosome, the basal body and the cilium are interlinked both structurally, through a network of stable microtubules, and functionally, as a number of centrosomal proteins can normally localize (...)

  thin filament troponin-I troponin-T tropomyosin actin
  Pathology (sarcomeropathies)
  Mutations in genes encoding each of the proteins can cause hyertrophic cardiomyopathy.
