Question

One protein in this family localizes to the sides of stereocilia to support tip links and is the most common protein mutated in patients with type I ("one") Usher syndrome. One of these proteins cross-links antiparallel structures into stress fibers. Class VI ("six") of these proteins travel towards (0[1])pointed ends, (0[1])while their class II ("two") is "conventional." The (0[1])presence of these proteins distinguishes the H zone and (0[1])the A band, and these (20[1]0[2])proteins are (20[1])absent (0[2])from (*) I ("eye") bands. The head (10[2]0[1])domain of these proteins uses energy (10[1])released (0[1])by (0[1])ATP (10[1])hydrolysis for its (10[1])"power stroke." These proteins (10[2]0[1])form thick filaments in sarcomeres. For 10 (10[1]0[2])points, name these (10[1]0[1])motor proteins that drive (0[1])muscle contraction by binding (10[1]0[3])to (0[1])actin. ■END■
