The document discusses the cytoskeleton, which is a network of protein filaments found in eukaryotic cells that helps maintain cell shape and enable cell movement. It is composed of microtubules, actin filaments, and intermediate filaments. Microtubules are hollow tubes made of tubulin proteins. Actin filaments are thin filaments made of actin proteins. Intermediate filaments are made of various fibrous proteins. Together, these filaments form a scaffolding that supports and shapes the cell. The cytoskeleton also enables cellular processes like intracellular transport, cell division, and cell movement.

The framework comprises 13 steps that provide the basis for making decisions in relation to the purpose (and objectives), and the available resources, for an inventory.
11. All steps in the Framework are applicable to the planning and implementation of any wetland inventory, and all steps should therefore be followed during the design and planning process. The framework does not provide prescriptive guidance on particular inventory methods; rather it provides guidance to the Contracting Parties and others who are planning to undertake wetland inventory by drawing attention to different methods and wetland classifications already in use and of proven utility under different circumstances.
Learning objectives:
Role of cytoskeleton & molecular motors
Differentiate the three types of cytoskeletal elements
Drugs acting on cytoskeletal elements and their uses
Pathological basis of disorders associated with cytoskeletal elements
Interaction between cytoskeleton and molecular motor proteins

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Alberts et al. 2004
8. In vitro polymerization of microtubules proceeds
more rapidly at + ends, depolymerization at – ends
In vitro experiments showed that microtubules polymerize more rapidly
at their plus ends from tubulin dimer containing GTP,
while polymerization is slower or depolymerization proceeds at minus
ends (tubulin dimers containing GDP).
Dimers move from one end to the other (tubulin treadmilling). When some
structure is joined to microtubule, it is translocated along microtubule
(like man standing on escalator).

24. Glossary
Actin filament. Protein filament 7- nm wide, formed from globular actin molecules. A major
constituent of the cytoskeleton of all eucaryotic cells, especially abundant in muscle cells.
Centriole. Short cylindric array of microtubules, usually found in pairs at the center of a
centrosome in animal cells. Also found at the base of cillia and flagella (called basal bodies).
Centrosome. Centrally located organelle of animal cell that is the primary microtubule organizing
center (MTOC) and acts as the spindle pole during mitosis. In most animal cells it contains a
pair of centrioles.
Ciliate. Type of single-celled eucaryotic organism (protozoan) characterized by numerous cillia
on its surface. The cillia are used for swimming, feeding, or capture of prey.
Cilium. Hairlike extension on the surface of a cell with a core bundle of microtubules and
capable of performing repeated beating movements. Cillia, in large numbers, drive the
movement of fluid over epithelial sheets, as in the lungs.
Cytoskeleton. System of protein filaments in the cytoplasm of a eucaryotic cell that gives the cell
shape and the capacity for directed movement. Its most abundant components are actin
filaments, microtubules and intermediate filaments.
Dimer. A structure composed of two equivalent halves. The term „heterodimer“ is sometimes
used when the two halves are not perfectly identical.
Dynein. Member of a family of large motor proteins that undergo ATP-dependent movement
along microtubules. Dynein is responsible for the movement of cilia and flagella.
Fibrous protein. A protein with an elongated shape. Typically one such as collagen or
intermediate filament protein that is able to associate into long filamentous structures.
Filopodium. Long thin actin-containing extension on the surface of an animal cell. Sometimes
has an exploratory function, as in a growth cone of neuron.
Flagellum. A long whipelike protrusion that drives a cell through a fluid medium by its beating.
Eucaryotic flagella are longer versions of cilia; bacterial flagella are completely different,
being smaller and simpler in construction.
Globular protein. Any protein with an approximately rounded shape. Most enzymes are globular.
Intermediate filament. Fibrous protein filament (about 10 nm in diameter) that forms ropelike
networks in animal cells. Often used as a structural element that resists tension applied to the
cell from outside.
Kinesin. One member of a large family of motor proteins that uses the energy of ATP hydrolysis
to move along a microtubule.
25. Lamellipodium. Dynamic sheetlike extension on the surface of an animal cell, especially one
migrating over a surface.
Microtubule. Long, stiff, cylindrical structure composed of the protein tubulin. Used by
eucaryotic cells to regulate their shape and control their movement.
Myofibril. Long, highly organized bundle of actin, myosin and other proteins in the cytoplasm of
muscle cells that contracts by a sliding filament mechanism.
Motor protein. Protein such as myosin or kinesin that uses energy derived from ATP hydrolysis
to propel itself along a protein filament or polymeric molecule. Myosin - type of motor
protein that uses ATP to drive movements along actin filaments. Myosin II is a large protein
that forms the thick filaments of skeletal muscle. Smaller myosins, such as myosin I, are
widely distributed, and responsible for many actin-based movements.
Nuclear lamina. Fibrous layer on the inner surface of the nuclear membrane made up of a
network of intermediate filaments made from nuclear lamins.
Phagocytic cell. A cell such as a macrophage or neutrophil that is specialized to take up particles
and microorganisms by phagocytosis.
Phagocytosis. The process by which particulate material is engulfed („eaten“) by a cell (f.e.
Amoeba proteus, macrophages, neutrophils).
Polarity. Refers to a structure such as an actin filament or a fertilized egg that has an inherent
direction – so that one can distinguish one end from the other.
Polymer. Large and usually linear molecule made by the repetitive assembly, using covalent
bonds, of multiple identical or similar units (monomers).
Pseudopodium. (Latin for „false foot“). Large cell-surface protrusion formed by ameboid cell as
they crawl. More generally, any dynamic actin-rich extension of the surface of an animal cell.
Sarcomere. Repeating unit of a myofibril in a muscle cell, about 2.5 μm long, composed of an
array of overlapping thick (myosin) and thin (actin) filaments).
Tubulin. Protein from which microtubules are made.
Gama-tubulin ring. Protein complex in centrosomes that nucleates microtubule assembly.
Gama-tubulin ring complex (γ-TU-RC). Protein complex, nucleating microtubules in the plant
cell ( that does not have centrosomes) at the plasma membrane, nuclear membrane and
fragmoplast.
