Sarcomere formation occurs by the assembly of multiple latent protein complexes. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2010 The stereotyped striation of myofibrils is a conserved feature of muscle organization that is critical to its function. Although most components that constitute the basic myofibrils are well-characterized biochemically and are conserved across the animal

Contractile Properties of Human Fetal Skeletal Myofibrils [PDF]
, 2013 Congenital contractures such as clubfoot are present in ?1/250 live births. Several congenital contractures syndromes are caused by mutations in genes that code for skeletal myofilament proteins, including MYH3 and MYH8.

Effects of high-pressure treatment on the structure and function of myofibrils
Biophysics and Physicobiology, 2021 The effects of high pressure (40–70 MPa) on the structure and function of myofibrils were investigated by high pressure microscopy. When this pressure was applied to myofibrils immersed in relaxing solution, the sarcomere length remained almost unchanged,

Complementary Medicine Journal of Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery, 2021 Objective: Cell aging is one of the most important and fundamental step in cellular behavior and reduces muscle mass and myofibrils. This study aims to investigate the effect of resistance exercise along with vitamin C consumption on the expression of ...

Degradation of α-actinin during Ca2+-sensitive proteolysis of myofibrils [PDF]
, 1985 The noted loss of α-actinin from the Z-line of myofibrils during post-mortem autolysis, probably following the action of calcium-activated protease, has previously been attributed to its release without degradation.

Mechanical and kinetic effects of shortened tropomyosin reconstituted into myofibrils [PDF]
, 2009 The effects of tropomyosin on muscle mechanics and kinetics were examined in skeletal myofibrils using a novel method to remove tropomyosin (Tm) and troponin (Tn) and then replace these proteins with altered versions.

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

What is the true ATPase activity of contracting myofibrils? [PDF]
, 1991 The ATPase activity of contracting myofibrils was obtained in a solvent of ionic contents that mimic in vivo conditions: pH 7.4 and 0.1 M potassium acetate.

Assembly and Disassembly of Myofibrils in Dissociated Cardiomyocytes [PDF]
, 2012 Significance 1) We have developed a hybrid TPEF-SHG imaging system with an onstage incubator for long-term living-cell imaging. Using the imaging system, the assembly of myosin filaments onto the myofibrils can be investigated without fluorescently
