What molecular motor uses microtubules to disassemble the nuclear membrane?
A)myosin
B)kinesin
C)dynein
D)calpain
E)calmodulin

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Dynein is a molecular motor that moves along microtubules and is responsible for the disassembly of the nuclear membrane during mitosis. Myosin is a molecular motor that moves along actin filaments and is involved in muscle contraction and other cellular processes. Kinesin is another molecular motor that moves along microtubules, but it is mainly involved in intracellular transport. Calpain is a family of calcium-dependent proteases, and calmodulin is a calcium binding protein that regulates many cellular processes but is not a molecular motor.
