Molecular base of plant HSP90-MT interaction
Benáková, Martina ; Krtková, Jana (advisor) ; Malcová, Ivana (referee)
Microtubules (MTs) are one of the essential cell structure that participate in a number of key events in the plant cells and their properties and functions are influenced and modified by many other proteins. These proteins belong to a group of microtubule- associated proteins (MAPs, microtubule-associated proteins). One of the MAPs, the molecular chaperone Hsp90, examines and fulfills a large number of different functions in the cell. Its colocalization with MTs has been demonstrated previously by Freudenreich and Nick (1998) and Petrášek et al. (1998). However, direct interaction with MTs was described only recently using cosedimentation assay. The specific cytosolic isoform of tobacco Hsp90 bound to MTs was called Hsp90_MT due to its ability to bind MTs. It has been also found that the binding to MTs is independent on the activity of ATP (Krtková et al., 2012). The authors also described a positive effect of Hsp90_MT on MT recovery after their exposure to cold stress. Although MT cytoskeleton dynamics is influenced by a large number of MAPs, it is surprising that the molecular mechanism of MAPs interaction with MTs and their MT-binding domains have not been described yet. Therefore, we decided to determine the tobacco Hsp90_MT MT-binding domain by production of a set of recombinant proteins...

Microtubule-associated proteins in plants
Benáková, Martina ; Krtková, Jana (advisor) ; Vinopal, Stanislav (referee)
1. Abstract and key words MTs are one of the basic cellular protein structure. Their features and function are influenced and modified by group of other proteins, i.e. microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs). In the last decades, an extensive research on MAPs and their wide range of functions has been carried out. Therefore we are aware of the involvement of some of the MAPs in MT dynamics, other have been shown to have rather structural function. They bundle MTs with various cell structures, such as the other MTs, proteins, organelles, actin cytoskeleton or plasma membrane. Many described MAPs are homologous in the whole eukaryotic domain, for example MAP65 or EB1 (END BINDING 1) family, therefore it is interesting to follow if and how the functions of plant MAPs differ from their animal counterparts. On the other hand, there are many specific MAPs with unique functions in plants, e.g. ATK5 or SPR1 (SPIRAL 1). This Bachelor thesis is a survey on current knowledge of plant MAPs and it makes an effort to present their characteristic and functions in plant cell and organism. Key words: cytoskeleton, microtubules, microtubule-associated proteins, plant cell, growth and development

The Stimulation of Children with Child Brain Paralysis. Possibilities for using Reflex Therapy
Benáková, Martina ; Hájková, Vanda (advisor) ; Tupá, Miroslava (referee)
Stimulation for the Child with Cerebral Palsy : The Application Options of Synergy Reflex Therapy The purpose of this dissertation is to present the application options of synergy reflex therapy in terms of interdisciplinary care of the child with cerebral palsy. The theoretical part includes short recapitulation of basic neuroanatomy and neurophysiology findings that provide a theory base for the understanding of the human learning and its support strategies. Remaining chapters are focused on the child's with cerebral palsy needs and his/her stimulation options through the use of commonly used therapies and synergy reflex therapy. The second part contains firstly the practical application of synergy reflex therapy in the area of interdisciplinary teamwork care and secondly the children's with cerebral palsy case reports.
