  2. Myosin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myosin

    Myosin X is an unconventional myosin motor, which is functional as a dimer. The dimerization of myosin X is thought to be antiparallel. [53] This behavior has not been observed in other myosins. In mammalian cells, the motor is found to localize to filopodia. Myosin X walks towards the barbed ends of filaments.

  3. MYH9 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MYH9

    Myosin-9 also known as myosin, heavy chain 9, non-muscle or non-muscle myosin heavy chain IIa (NMMHC-IIA) is a protein which in humans is encoded by the MYH9 gene. [5] [6]Non-muscle myosin IIA (NM IIA) is expressed in most cells and tissues where it participates in a variety of processes requiring contractile force, such as cytokinesis, cell migration, polarization and adhesion, maintenance of ...

  4. Food loss and waste - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_loss_and_waste

    Curbside collection of food waste is also done in the U.S., some ways by combining food scraps and yard waste together. Several states in the U.S. have introduced a yard waste ban, not accepting leaves, brush, trimmings, etc. in landfills. Collection of food scraps and yard waste combined is then recycled and composted for reuse.

    The organics recycling publication also found that there was a 49% increase in the number of households with access to residential food waste collection programs between 2021 and 2023, though ...

  6. Myosin head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myosin_head

    The myosin head is the part of the thick myofilament made up of myosin that acts in muscle contraction, by sliding over thin myofilaments of actin.Myosin is the major component of the thick filaments and most myosin molecules are composed of a head, neck, and tail domain; the myosin head binds to thin filamentous actin, and uses ATP hydrolysis to generate force and "walk" along the thin filament.

  7. Mechanical biological treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_biological...

    There is no green energy produced by systems employing only composting treatment for the biodegradable waste. In the case of biodrying, the waste material undergoes a period of rapid heating through the action of aerobic microbes. During this partial composting stage the heat generated by the microbes result in rapid drying of the waste.

  8. Unconventional myosin-Va - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconventional_myosin-Va

    Unconventional myosin-Va is a motor protein in charge of the intracellular transport of vesicles, organelles and protein complexes along the actin filaments. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] In humans it is coded for by the MYO5A gene .

  9. Unconventional myosin-Ia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconventional_myosin-Ia

    The myosin-Ia protein is expressed by enterocytes, the epithelial cells that line the luminal surface of the small intestine. In these cells the myosin-1a protein localizes specifically to the brush border. Experiments indicate that the brush border population of the encoded protein turns over rapidly, while its head and tail domains interact ...
