Oxidative environments decrease tenderization of beef steaks through inactivation of μ-calpain [PDF]
, 2004 This study was designed to test the hypothesis that oxidative conditions in postmortem (PM) tissue decrease calpain activity and proteolysis, subsequently minimizing the extent of tenderization. To achieve different levels of oxidation, the diets of beef

Analysing the lattice transition of thin filaments in striated muscle
, 2010 Thin filaments, through interaction with thick filaments, form the contractile apparatus of striated muscle. Therefore, the length and arrangement of the thin filaments are of key importance to the function of the muscle. The thin filaments from adjacent

Cytoskeleton, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 571-591, September 2025.ABSTRACT Actin filaments are dynamic polymers whose length depends on regulated monomer association and dissociation at their ends. Actin barbed‐end dynamics are relatively better understood, primarily due to the approximately tenfold faster subunit on/off rates at barbed versus pointed ends.

Understanding the functions of titin and nebulin [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1992 Individual molecules of the giant muscle proteins titin and nebulin span large distances in the sarcomere. Approximately one‐third of the titin molecule forms elastic filaments linking the ends of thick filaments to the Z‐line. The remainder of the molecule is probably bound to the thick filament where it may regulate assembly of myosin and the other ...

Fiber Type‐Specific Proteomic Alterations in R349P Desminopathy Mice
Muscle &Nerve, Volume 71, Issue 6, Page 1113-1121, June 2025.ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Desminopathies are a group of rare human myopathies and cardiomyopathies caused by pathogenic variants of the desmin gene. Here, we analyzed the effects of the R349P mutant desmin on the proteomic profiles of individual fiber types of murine skeletal muscle.

Effect of implantation on engineered skeletal muscle constructs [PDF]
, 2012 The development of engineered skeletal muscle would provide a viable tissue for replacement and repair of muscle damaged by disease or injury. Our current tissue‐engineering methods result in three‐dimensional (3D) muscle constructs that generate tension
