Distinct actin–tropomyosin cofilament populations drive the functional diversification of cytoskeletal myosin motor complexes

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: The effects of N-terminal acetylation of the high molecular weight tropomyosin isoforms Tpm1.6 and Tpm2.1 and the low molecular weight isoforms Tpm1.12, Tpm3.1, and Tpm4.2 on the actin affinity and the thermal stability of actin-tropomyosin ...

Distortion of the Actin A-Triad Results in Contractile Disinhibition and Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesCell 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.

Formins Determine the Functional Properties of Actin Filaments in Yeast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The actin cytoskeleton executes a broad range of essential functions within a living cell. The dynamic nature of the actin polymer is modulated to facilitate specific cellular processes at discrete locations by actin-binding proteins (ABPs), including ...

Mutation update and genotype-phenotype correlations of novel and previously described mutations in TPM2 and TPM3 causing congenital myopathies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Mutations affecting skeletal muscle isoforms of the tropomyosin genes may cause nemaline myopathy, cap myopathy, core-rod myopathy, congenital fiber-type disproportion, distal arthrogryposes, and Escobar syndrome.

Gene Cloning and Prokaryotic Expression of the Allergen Tropomyosin from Macrobrachium nipponense [PDF]

open access: yesShipin Kexue
To explore substitutes for natural tropomyosin as basic materials for the diagnosis and treatment of shrimp allergy, total RNA was extracted from Macrobrachium nipponense, and the full-length sequence of the tropomyosin gene was cloned by rapid ...

Dynamics of tropomyosin in muscle fibers as monitored by saturation transfer EPR of bi-functional probe. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The dynamics of four regions of tropomyosin was assessed using saturation transfer electron paramagnetic resonance in the muscle fiber. In order to fully immobilize the spin probe on the surface of tropomyosin, a bi-functional spin label was attached to ...

Changing the IgE Binding Capacity of Tropomyosin in Shrimp through Structural Modification Induced by Cold Plasma and Glycation Treatment

open access: yesFoods, 2023
Tropomyosin (TM) is the major allergen of shrimp (Penaeus chinensis). Previous studies showed that separate cold plasma or glycation have their drawback in reducing allergenicity of TM, including effectiveness and reliability. In the current study, a new
