Keratin 6A assembled hard keratins to form a more structurally resilient material. Both epithelial keratins and hard keratins can be further subdivided into type I (acidic) keratins and type II (neutral-basic) keratins. The genes for the type I keratins are located in a gene cluster on human chromosome 17q, whereas the genes for type II keratins are located in a cluster on human chromosome 12q (the exception being K18, a type I keratin located in the type II gene cluster). Keratin 6A (protein name K6A; gene name "KRT6A"), is a type II cytokeratin, one of a number of isoforms of keratin 6
Myosin head actin together with the products of ATP hydrolysis, performs a power stroke associated with release of hydrolysis products, and detaches from actin upon binding with new ATP. The detached myosin head then hydrolyses ATP, and performs a recovery stroke to restore its initial position. The strokes have been suggested to result from rotation of the lever arm domain around the converter domain, while the catalytic domain remains rigid. Myosin head Muscle contraction is caused by the sliding action of thick filaments over thin filaments of the myofibril. Myosin is a major component of thick filaments and most myosin molecules are
