Current Biology, 2017 The actin cytoskeleton provides not only the underpinning for cell architecture but also mechanical force and the ability to drive movement of cells and their organelles. It is tempting to think of it simply as a set of stable structural elements, but nothing could be further from the truth.

Tropomyosin isoforms and reagents [PDF]
BioArchitecture, 2011 Tropomyosins are rod-like dimers which form head-to-tail polymers along the length of actin filaments and regulate the access of actin binding proteins to the filaments.1 The diversity of tropomyosin isoforms, over 40 in mammals, and their role in an increasing number of biological processes presents a challenge both to experienced researchers and ...

Distortion of the Actin A-Triad Results in Contractile Disinhibition and Cardiomyopathy
Cell Reports, 2017 Striated muscle contraction is regulated by the movement of tropomyosin over the thin filament surface, which blocks or exposes myosin binding sites on actin.

Digestion of tropomyosin with trypsin [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1977 Tropomyosin is a rod-like a-helical protein composed of two similar subunits in a coiled-coil configuration. It is situated in the grooves of the F-actin strands and with troponin constitutes the regulatory-complex of vertebrate striated muscle. The sequence of the tropomyosin subunit has been determined by Stone, et al. [ 11.

Characterization of Contractile Proteins from Skeletal Muscle Using Gel-Based Top-Down Proteomics
Proteomes, 2019 The mass spectrometric analysis of skeletal muscle proteins has used both peptide-centric and protein-focused approaches. The term ‘top-down proteomics’ is often used in relation to studying purified proteoforms and their post-translational ...
