The Structural Adaptations That Mediate Disuse-Induced Atrophy of Skeletal Muscle
Cells, 2023 The maintenance of skeletal muscle mass plays a fundamental role in health and issues associated with quality of life. Mechanical signals are one of the most potent regulators of muscle mass, with a decrease in mechanical loading leading to a decrease in

Biology, 2022 The R249Q mutation in human β-cardiac myosin results in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. We previously showed that inserting this mutation into Drosophila melanogaster indirect flight muscle myosin yields mechanical and locomotory defects.

Tension-driven multi-scale self-organisation in human iPSC-derived muscle fibers
eLife, 2022 Human muscle is a hierarchically organised tissue with its contractile cells called myofibers packed into large myofiber bundles. Each myofiber contains periodic myofibrils built by hundreds of contractile sarcomeres that generate large mechanical forces.

Cells, 2023 Plectin, a highly versatile cytolinker protein, is crucial for myofiber integrity and function. Accordingly, mutations in the human gene (PLEC) cause several rare diseases, denoted as plectinopathies, with most of them associated with progressive muscle ...

Specific fluorescent labeling of chicken myofibril Z-line proteins catalyzed by guinea pig liver transglutaminase [PDF]
, 1979 Guinea pig liver transglutaminase has been found to catalyze the covalent incorporation of dansylcadaverine into chicken skeletal muscle myofibril proteins.

International Journal of Food Properties, 2022 Meat is the richest source of protein and according to meat sources, the protein is composed of different types of amino acids which are completely dependent upon the protein types. Myofibril is basically muscle protein that’s widely present in different

Properties of heat induced blend gel of Peruvian squid (Dosidicus gigas) myofibril protein fortified with millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) flour [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2021 Weak gelation ability and simple nutrient composition of squid myofibril protein limits its further development in surimi production. Millet flour is rich in nutrients and has a good viscoelasticity after heating.
