2. Unit Goal – Understand how motor proteins interact with cytoskeleton components to direct movement. Context – General Biology or Human Anatomy & Physiology – Freshman/Sophomore – Tidbit will be in the middle of a 1-2 week unit. Tidbit may be followed by discussion of neutrophil movement and/or cytokinesis. Next class will cover other molecular motors. Prior Knowledge – Three main types of cytoskeletal proteins – ATP as an energy source – Components and arrangement of sarcomeres in skeletal muscle – Introduction to the Sliding Filament Theory

3. Tidbit Goal Know how ATP binding and hydrolysis regulate the interaction of actin and myosin Teachable tidbit intended learning outcomes – Describe the molecular structure and functional features of a myosin molecule. – Dramatize the interaction of myosin and actin during the ATP cycle. – Discuss how the physical features of myosin allow it to function as a motor protein. – Recall ATP hydrolysis causes the high energy configuration of the myosin head. – Explain how actin and myosin interact to contract a muscle. – Predict what happens if there is no ATP.

4. Tidbit Activity Students will engage in a group activity to complete a strip sequence and dramatize the interactions of actin, myosin, and the ATP cycle in a muscle contraction.
