Myosin chaperones

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Structural Biology, 2014
The folding and assembly of myosin motor proteins is essential for most movement processes at the cellular, but also at the organism level. Importantly, myosins, which represent a very diverse family of proteins, require the activity of general and specialized folding factors to develop their full motor function.

The coagulation of myosin in muscle [PDF]

open access: yes, 1937
The coagulation of myosin is one of the few changes in the proteins of muscle known to take place during contraction and rigor. Although under certain conditions as much as one-third of the total protein of muscle may become insoluble, the significance ...

Myosin XVI in the Nervous System

open access: yesCells, 2020
The myosin family is a large inventory of actin-associated motor proteins that participate in a diverse array of cellular functions. Several myosin classes are expressed in neural cells and play important roles in neural functioning.

The hypertrophic cardiomyopathy mutations R403Q and R663H increase the number of myosin heads available to interact with actin

open access: yesScience Advances, 2020
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy–causing mutations disrupt a key regulatory off state of myosin in thick filaments. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) mutations in β-cardiac myosin and myosin binding protein-C (MyBP-C) lead to hypercontractility of the heart ...

Structural dynamics of myosin 5 during processive motion revealed by interferometric scattering microscopy

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Myosin 5a is a dual-headed molecular motor that transports cargo along actin filaments. By following the motion of individual heads with interferometric scattering microscopy at nm spatial and ms temporal precision we found that the detached head ...

Phosphorylation and Activation of Myosin by Rho-associated Kinase (Rho-kinase)*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1996
The small GTPase Rho is implicated in physiological functions associated with actin-myosin filaments such as cytokinesis, cell motility, and smooth muscle contraction.

The actin-myosin regulatory MRCK kinases: regulation, biological functions and associations with human cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The contractile actin-myosin cytoskeleton provides much of the force required for numerous cellular activities such as motility, adhesion, cytokinesis and changes in morphology.

Skeletal Muscle Protein Composition Adaptations to 10 Weeks of High-Load Resistance Training in Previously-Trained Males

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
While high-load resistance training increases muscle hypertrophy, the intramuscular protein responses to this form of training remains largely unknown. In the current study, recreationally resistance-trained college-aged males (N = 15; mean ± SD: 23 ± 3 ...

Discovery of (S)-3′-hydroxyblebbistatin and (S)-3′-aminoblebbistatin : polar myosin II inhibitors with superior research tool properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
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.
