The double helix of tropomyosin
Nature, 1975THE tropomyosin molecule consists of two α helices, which form a coiled-coil a little over 400 A long1. Besides forming crystals, tropomyosin can be precipitated with divalent cations to produce needle shaped aggregates (showing a variety of patterns of cross striations in the electron microscope2) for which the detailed molecular packings have not ...

Isoform Sorting of Tropomyosins
2008Cytoskeletal tropomyosin (Tm) isoforms show extensive intracellular sorting, resulting in spatially distinct actin-filament populations. Sorting of Tm isoforms has been observed in a number of cell types, including fibroblasts, epithelial cells, osteoclasts, neurons and muscle cells.

Tropomyosin-troponin and tropomyosin-actin interactions: a fluorescence quenching study
Biochemistry, 1983Rabbit skeletal alpha alpha-tropomyosin was specifically labeled at Cys-190 with the fluorescent probe N-(iodoacetyl)-N'-(1-naphthyl-5-sulfo)ethylenediamine (1,5-IAE-DANS). The fluorescence decay of the resultant AE-DANS-labeled alpha alpha-tropomyosin (Tm) was monoexponential with a lifetime of 13.55 ns.

Crystalline sheets of tropomyosin
Journal of Molecular Biology, 1984In the presence of spermine tropomyosin forms sheets having two-dimensional crystallinity and tactoids. The most common form of sheet has cmm symmetry with a = 80 nm and b = 5 nm. The structure of this sheet has been solved in projection to a nominal resolution of 1.5 nm by combining data from electron diffraction and electron microscopy.

Abstract Tropomyosins (TMs) are found in virtually all eukaryotic cells in association with actin. In skeletal and cardiac muscles, TM, together with the troponin complex, comprises the regulatory mechanism by which the interaction of F-actin and myosin are controlled by the level of calcium ions,3,4 In smooth muscle and non-muscle cells

Tropomyosin and molecular mimicry
Parasitology Today, 1991cyst investiture in nonmuscle tropo- myosin may play a role in immune evasion in the snail host by protecting the sporocyst from amoebocyte attack. If true, this would be a prime example of molecular mimicry in its full and original sense s , which links common structures to the host-parasite relationship.

Tropomyosins were discovered as regulators of actomyosin contractility in muscle cells, making yeasts and other fungi seem unlikely to harbor such proteins. Fungal cells are encased in a rigid cell wall and do not engage in the same sorts of contractile shape changes of animal cells.
