Microtubule-based transport in the anterograde direction by plus-end-directed Kinesin motors and in the retrograde direction by minus-end-directed Dynein motor proteins are essential for neuronal function and homeostasis.
All ventral abdominal contractions initiate at the thoraco-abdominal junction and propagate in a wave-like peristaltic manner toward the posterior of the insect (retrograde direction), concluding in the last abdominal segment and resulting in ventrally directed abduction.
Venus, however, rotates in the opposite, or retrograde, direction.
These are irregular, having highly eccentric orbits that are inclined at large angles to the planet's equator; three also orbit in the retrograde direction.
Transport occurred exclusively in the retrograde direction.
Extraoral root canal treatment was performed from a retrograde direction with posts made of ceramics or titanium.
This tool automatically shows the regions not covered during the regular fly-through in an antegrade and retrograde direction.
This suture is now tied to the CC suspension device, and pulled out in a cranial direction so the device passes in a retrograde direction (Fig. 4f).
Tkv-GFP receptor puncta of cell projections in Drosophila were shown to move here either in an anterograde or in a retrograde direction (Fig. 6.3) [101].
Thus, to a hypothetical observer on Mercury, the Sun appears to move in a retrograde direction.
The filaments moving in retrograde direction outnumbers those in anterograde direction, therefore, on average, F-actin filaments in dendritic spines flows in a net retrograde direction.
