Cardiac Myosin Binding Protein C [PDF]
Abstract —Myosin binding protein C (MyBP-C) is one of a group of myosin binding proteins that are present in the myofibrils of all striated muscle. The protein is found at 43-nm repeats along 7 to 9 transverse lines in a portion of the A band where crossbridges are found (C zone).

Novel blood coagulation molecules: Skeletal muscle myosin and cardiac myosin
Essentials Striated muscle myosins can promote prothrombin activation by FXa or FVa inactivation by APC. Cardiac myosin and skeletal muscle myosin are pro-hemostatic in murine tail cut bleeding models. Infused cardiac myosin exacerbates myocardial injury caused by myocardial ischemia reperfusion.

Ensemble Force Changes that Result from Human Cardiac Myosin Mutations and a Small-Molecule Effector
Cardiomyopathies due to mutations in human β-cardiac myosin are a significant cause of heart failure, sudden death, and arrhythmia. To understand the underlying molecular basis of changes in the contractile system’s force production due to such mutations

Molecular Characteristics of Canine Cardiac Myosin [PDF]
Cardiac myosin was obtained from the hearts of normal dogs by conventional extraction and precipitation techniques, followed by ammonium sulfate fractionation in the presence of 2.0 M lithium chloride. The molecular characteristics of this protein preparation are presented. Cardiac myosin prepared by this technique shows less tendency than

The emergence of Pax7-expressing muscle stem cells during vertebrate head muscle development [PDF]
Pax7 expressing muscle stem cells accompany all skeletal muscles in the body and in healthy individuals, efficiently repair muscle after injury. Currently, the in vitro manipulation and culture of these cells is still in its infancy, yet muscle stem ...

Direct regulation of striated muscle myosins by nitric oxide and endogenous nitrosothiols.
BackgroundNitric oxide (NO) has long been recognized to affect muscle contraction, both through activation of guanylyl cyclase and through modification of cysteines in proteins to yield S-nitrosothiols. While NO affects the contractile apparatus directly,

Discovery of (S)-3′-hydroxyblebbistatin and (S)-3′-aminoblebbistatin : polar myosin II inhibitors with superior research tool properties [PDF]
In search of myosin II inhibitors with superior research tool properties, a chemical optimization campaign of the blebbistatin scaffold was conducted in this paper. (S)-Blebbistatin is the best known small-molecule inhibitor of myosin II ATPase activity.

Cardiac β-myosin variants cause hypertrophic (HCM) or dilated (DCM) cardiomyopathy by disrupting sarcomere contraction and relaxation. The locations of variants on isolated myosin head structures predict contractility effects but not the prominent ...
