Concept of Cytoskeleton (Narrow sense) The cytoskeleton is a network of protein filaments in eukaryotic cells.It provide structural integrity dynamics for cells; helps to move organelles and materials throughout cell;helps to move chromosomes during cell division. There are 3 basic components of the cytoskeleton: Microtubules(MT)(微管)； Microfilaments(MF)(微丝)； Intermediate filaments(lF)(中间纤维).
