The effect of recombinant caspase 3 on myofibrillar proteins in porcine skeletal muscle

open access: yesAnimal, 2008
The objective of this study was to investigate the potential role of the caspase protease family in meat tenderisation by examining if caspase 3 was capable of causing myofibril protein degradation.

Mio affects myofibril size.

open access: yes, 2015
Scanning Electron Microscopy of Indirect Flight Muscles of adult Mef2-Gal4>MiodsRNA and Mef2-Gal4>Mio-IR females compared to Mef2-Gal4>GFP controls. Panels (A), (B) and (C) show cross sections of the myofibrils; bars indicate 0.5μm.

The ubiquitin ligase Ozz decreases the replacement rate of embryonic myosin in myofibrils

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2021
Myosin, the most abundant myofibrillar protein in skeletal muscle, functions as a motor protein in muscle contraction. Myosin polymerizes into the thick filaments in the sarcomere where approximately 50% of embryonic myosin (Myh3) are replaced within 3 h

Cellular Aspects of Muscle Specialization Demonstrate Genotype – Phenotype Interaction Effects in Athletes

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
IntroductionGene polymorphisms are associated with athletic phenotypes relying on maximal or continued power production and affect the specialization of skeletal muscle composition with endurance or strength training of untrained subjects.

Architecture and molecular machinery of skeletal myofibers: a systematic review of the structure–function relationships

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
The skeletal muscle, one of the largest tissues in mammals, plays a crucial role in maintaining body movement and energy metabolism. Dysfunction or damage to the skeletal muscle can lead to various muscle diseases, such as muscular dystrophy, myasthenia,

The conserved transmembrane proteoglycan Perdido/Kon-tiki is essential for myofibrillogenesis and sarcomeric structure in Drosophila [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
M.B. was funded by a Wellcome Trust Senior Investigator Award to P. Lawrence (WT096645MA).Muscle differentiation requires the assembly of high-order structures called myofibrils, composed of sarcomeres.

Alp/Enigma family proteins cooperate in Z-disc formation and myofibril assembly. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2013
The Drosophila Alp/Enigma family protein Zasp52 localizes to myotendinous junctions and Z-discs. It is required for terminal muscle differentiation and muscle attachment.
