Fiber Type‐Specific Proteomic Alterations in R349P Desminopathy Mice
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.

Deciphering the Effect of Nemaline-Myopathy Nebulin Mutations on Desmin Binding [PDF]
Our research focuses on the role of intermediate proteins in human disease. Desmin, a major intermediate filament protein in muscle cells, is organized into a central coiledcoil alpha helical domain flanked by globular head and tail domains.

Abstract figure legend Graphical representation of the main results. The cartoon indicates that, in the presence of TNNT1 variants, the thin filament is more compliant, and more easily activated leading to higher myofibre Ca2+ sensitivity and cellular hyper‐contractility.

Each Actin Subunit Has Three Nebulin Binding Sites Implications for Steric Blocking
Nebulin is a giant protein that spans most of the muscle thin filament [1, 2]. Mutations in nebulin result in myopathies and dystrophies [3, 4].

Nebulin, a major player in muscle health and disease
Nebulin is a giant 600‐ to 900‐kDa filamentous protein that is an integral component of the skeletal muscle thin filament. Its functions have remained largely nebulous because of its large size and the difficulty in extracting nebulin in a native state from muscle.

EccDNA Analysis Provides Novel Insights Into the Molecular Mechanism of Firmness of Fish Fillet
We provide a new and basic eccDNA database for the molecular regulation of muscle firmness in grass carp. The eccDNA abundance in crisp grass carp was significantly higher than that in ordinary grass carp. EccDNAs likely play important roles in the muscle‐hardening of crisp grass carp.

Distinct molecular features of FLNC mutations, associated with different clinical phenotypes
Abstract Filamin С is a key an actin‐binding protein of muscle cells playing a critical role in maintaining structural integrity and sarcomere organization. FLNC mutations contribute to various types of cardiomyopathies and myopathies through potentially different molecular mechanisms.

Nemaline myopathy is the most common congenital skeletal muscle disease, and mutations in the nebulin gene account for 50% of all cases. Recent studies suggest that the disease severity might be related to the nebulin expression levels.
