The oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex is involved in myofibril growth and Z-disc assembly in Drosophila [PDF]
, 2023 Myofibrils are long intracellular cables specific to muscles, composed mainly of actin and myosin filaments. The actin and myosin filaments are organized into repeated units called sarcomeres, which form the myofibrils.

Assembly and Dynamics of Myofibrils [PDF]
Journal of Biomedicine and Biotechnology, 2010 We review some of the problems in determining how myofibrils may be assembled and just as importantly how this contractile structure may be renewed by sarcomeric proteins moving between the sarcomere and the cytoplasm. We also address in this personal review the recent evidence that indicates that the assembly and dynamics of myofibrils are conserved ...

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 ...

Lbx2regulates formation of myofibrils [PDF]
BMC Developmental Biology, 2009 Skeletal muscle differentiation requires assembly of contractile proteins into organized myofibrils. The Drosophila ladybird homeobox gene (lad) functions in founder cells of the segmental border muscle to promote myoblast fusion and muscle shaping. Tetrapods have two homologous genes (Lbx).

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.

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Skeletal muscle fibers are multinucleated cells that contain mostly myofibrils suspended in an aqueous media termed the sarcoplasm. Select evidence suggests sarcoplasmic hypertrophy, or a disproportionate expansion of the sarcoplasm relative to myofibril

, 2023 The effect of pre-rigor temperature incubation on the activity and distribution in sarcoplasmic and myofibrillar fractions of calpains, and meat quality attributes was investigated. Porcine longissimus thoracis muscles were incubated pre-rigor at 14, 22,

Cells, 2020 The maintenance of skeletal muscle mass plays a critical role in health and quality of life. One of the most potent regulators of skeletal muscle mass is mechanical loading, and numerous studies have led to a reasonably clear understanding of the ...

Thick filament‐associated myosin undergoes frequent replacement at the tip of the thick filament
FEBS Open Bio, 2022 Myosin plays a fundamental role in muscle contraction. Approximately 300 myosins form a bipolar thick filament, in which myosin is continuously replaced by protein turnover.
