Abstract:
The cytoskeleton is a system of intracellular filaments crucial for cell shape, division, and function in all three domains of life. The simple cytoskeletons of prokaryotes show surprising plasticity in composition, with none of the core filament-forming proteins conserved in all lineages. In contrast, eukaryotic cytoskeletal function has been hugely elaborated by the addition of accessory proteins and extensive gene duplication and specialization. Much of this complexity evolved before the last common ancestor of eukaryotes. The distribution of cytoskeletal filaments puts constraints on the l

Abstract:
Virus particles that infect eukaryotic cells can take advantage of the cytoskeleton and associated motors to translocate through the cytoplasm. Depending on the virus, motor proteins are recruited or, alternatively, cytoskeletal elements are induced to polymerize onto viral structures. Here we review recent advances toward understanding the roles of the cytoskeleton in virus trafficking.

Abstract:
It has been a long-standing dogma in life sciences that only eukaryotic organisms possess a cytoskeleton. Recently, this belief was questioned by the finding that the bacterial cell division protein FtsZ resembles tubulin in sequence and structure and, thus, may be the progenitor of this major eukaryotic cytoskeletal element. Here, we report two nuclear-encoded plant ftsZ genes which are highly conserved in coding sequence and intron structure. Both their encoded proteins are imported into plastids and there, like in bacteria, they act on the division process in a dose-dependent manner. Wherea

Abstract:
A rich and ongoing history of cell biology research has defined the major polymer systems of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton. Recent studies have identified additional proteins that form filamentous structures in cells and can self-assemble into linear polymers when purified. This suggests that the eukaryotic cytoskeleton is an even more complex system than previously considered. In this essay, I examine the case for an expanded definition of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton and present a series of challenges for future work in this area.

Abstract:
Eukaryogenesis—the process by which the eukaryotic cell emerged—has long puzzled scientists. It has been assumed that the fossil record has little to say about this process, in part because important characters such as the nucleus and mitochondria are rarely preserved, and in part because the prevailing model of early eukaryotes implies that eukaryogenesis occurred before the appearance of the first eukaryotes recognized in the fossil record. Here, I propose a different scenario for early eukaryote evolution than is widely assumed. Rather than crown group eukaryotes originating in the late Pal

Abstract:
The origin of eukaryotes is a fundamental, forbidding evolutionary puzzle. Comparative genomic analysis clearly shows that the last eukaryotic common ancestor (LECA) possessed most of the signature complex features of modern eukaryotic cells, in particular the mitochondria, the endomembrane system including the nucleus, an advanced cytoskeleton and the ubiquitin network. Numerous duplications of ancestral genes, e.g. DNA polymerases, RNA polymerases and proteasome subunits, also can be traced back to the LECA. Thus, the LECA was not a primitive organism and its emergence must have resulted fro

Abstract:
The basic structures of a bacterial and a eukaryotic cell are shown in Fig. 8.1. The differences whose origins call for an explanation are as follows: • The bacterial cell has a rigid outer cell wall, usually made of the peptidoglycan, murein. In eukaryotes, the rigid cell wall is not universal, and cell shape is maintained primarily by an internal cytoskeleton of filaments and microtubules. • Eukaryotic cells have a complex system of internal membranes, including the nuclear envelope, endoplasmic reticulum and lysosomes. • Bacteria have a single circular chromosome, attached to the rigid outer cell wall. In eukaryotes, linear chromosomes are contained within a nuclear envelope, which separates transcription from translation: communication between nucleus and cytoplasm is via pores in the nuclear envelope. • Eukaryotes have a complex cytoskeleton. The actomyosin system powers cell division, phagocytosis, amoeboid motion and the overall contractility to resist osmotic swelling. Microtubules and the associated motor proteins (kinesin, dynein and dynamin) ensure the accurate segregation of chromosomes in mitosis, ciliary motility and the movement of transport vesicles. Intermediate filaments form the structural basis for the association of the endomembranes and nuclear-pore complexes with the chromatin to form the nuclear envelope, while other intermediate filaments help to anchor the nucleus in the cytoplasm. One crucial difference between prokaryotes and most eukaryotes has been omitted from Fig. 8.1: this is the presence of mitochondria, and, in plants and algae, of chloroplasts. The reason for the omission is that, on the scenario for eukaryote origins that seems to us most plausible, these intracellular organelles originated later in time than the structures shown in the figure. The differences between these cell types justifies the recognition of two empires of life (above the kingdom level): Bacteria and Eukaryota (Cavalier-Smith, 199la; Table 8.1). (It is interesting that this taxonomic rank was recognized by Linnaeus.) Within each of the empires, there are two major categories: Bacteria consist of the kingdoms Eubacteria and Archaebacteria, and Eukaryota are divided into the superkingdoms Archaezoa and Metakaryota. The justification for these divisions is as follows. The Archaebacteria, in contrast to the Eubacteria, never have murein cell walls, and their single cell membrane contains isoprenoidal ether rather than acyl ester lipids.

Abstract:
Microtubules (MTs) are cylindrical polymers of the tubulin dimer, are constituents of all eukaryotic cells cytoskeleton and are involved in key cellular functions and are claimed to be involved as sub-cellular information or quantum information communication systems. The authors evaluated some biophysical properties of MTs by means of specific physical measures of resonance and birefringence in presence of electromagnetic field, on the assumption that when tubulin and MTs show different biophysical behaviours, this should be due to their special structural properties. Actually, MTs are the closest biological equivalent to the well-known carbon nanotubes (CNTs), whose interesting biophysical and quantum properties are due to their peculiar microscopic structure. The experimental results highlighted a physical behaviour of MTs in comparison with tubulin. The dynamic simulation of MT and tubulin subjected to electromagnetic field was performed via MD tools. Their level of self-organization was evaluated using artificial neural networks, which resulted to be an effective method to gather the dynamical behaviour of cellular and non-cellular structures and to compare their physical properties.

The mechanical behavior of a eukaryotic cell is mainly determined by its cytoskeleton. Microtubules immersed in cytosol are a central part of the cytoskeleton. Cytosol is the viscous fluid in living cells. The microtubules permanently oscillate in the cytosol. In this study, two-dimensional vibration of a single microtubule in living cell is investigated. The Donnell’s shell theory equations for orthotropic materials is used to model the microtubule whereas the motion of the cytosol is modeled as Stokes flow characterized by a small Reynolds number with no-slip condition at microtubule-cytosol

Microtubules (MTs) are fundamental structural elements in the cytoskeleton of all eukaryotic cells. The MTs are hollow cylinder-shaped biopolymers with inner and outer diameter of about 18 and 30 nm respectively and length ranging from 1 to 10 μm. They are constituted by αβ-tubulins arranged in protofilaments with head-to-tail motif. The protofilaments bind together laterally along the MT’s long axis with a slight shift generating a spiral with a pitch of 2, 3 or 4 monomers’ length [1]. The building-block of the MT, αβ-tubulin, is a hetero-dimer made of two globular monomers, α- and β-tubulin.
