Identification of the pan-allergen tropomyosin from the common bed bug (Cimex lectularius)
Scientific ReportsTropomyosin is a muscle contraction protein documented across all animal life. Despite its ubiquity, its unique structure in invertebrates leads to allergic responses in humans that vertebrate tropomyosin does not.

Molecular mechanisms of the regulation of ATPase cycle in striated muscle [PDF]
, 2007 New data on the molecular mechanism of the regulation of ATPase cycle by troponin-tropomyosin system have been obtained in reconstructed muscle fibers by using the polarized fluorescence technique, which allowed us following the azimuthal movements of ...

Altering the stability of the Cdc8 overlap region modulates the ability of this tropomyosin to bind cooperatively to actin and regulate myosin. [PDF]
, 2011 Tropomyosin (Tm) is an evolutionarily conserved ?-helical coiled-coil protein, dimers of which form end-to-end polymers capable of associating with and stabilising actin-filaments and regulate myosin function. The fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe,

International Journal of Food Science & Technology, 2018 Different processing techniques were assessed to attenuate the antigenicity of banana prawn tropomyosin (Fenneropenaeus merguiensis). Frying and boiling at different temperatures, acid treatment using different acids and storage at 20 °C up to 3 months ...

Avian tropomyosin gene expression [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 1989 Sequence analysis of overlapping fragments from a quail genomic library has revealed a tropomyosin gene consisting of 13 exons spaced over about 18 kilobase pairs of DNA. Skeletal muscle and smooth muscle transcripts share the same 5' untranslated sequence and may initiate from the same promoter.

The role of lipid metabolism in neuronal senescence
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Disrupted lipid metabolism, through alterations in lipid species or lipid droplet accumulation, can drive neuronal senescence. However, lipid dyshomeostasis can also occur alongside neuronal senescence, further amplifying tissue damage. Delineating how lipid‐induced senescence emerges in neurons and glial cells, and how it contributes to ageing and ...

Myocardial Perfusion Defects in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Mutation Carriers
Journal of the American Heart Association, EarlyView., 2021 Background Impaired myocardial blood flow (MBF) in the absence of epicardial coronary disease is a feature of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Although most evident in hypertrophied or scarred segments, reduced MBF can occur in apparently normal segments.

Tropomyosin autoantibodies associated with checkpoint inhibitor myositis
OncoImmunology, 2020 This brief report details the measurement and identification of IgA antibodies to tropomyosin in a case of presumed ocular myositis with paraspinal myositis in a patient with metastatic uveal melanoma treated with checkpoint inhibitors.

Copurification of actin and desmin from chicken smooth muscle and their copolymerization in vitro to intermediate filaments [PDF]
, 1979 Desmin is a 50,000-mol wt protein that is enriched along with 100-A filaments in chicken gizzard that has been extracted with 1 M KI. Although 1 M KI removes most of the actin from gizzard, a small fraction of this protein remains persistently insoluble,

Tailored Xenogeneic‐Free Polymer Surface Promotes Dynamic Migration of Intestinal Stem Cells
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces a PoLymer‐coated Ultra‐stable Surface (PLUS), a nitrogen plasma‐treated poly(ethyleneglycoldimethacrylate), as a stable xenogeneic‐free platform for intestinal stem cell culture. PLUS enhances cell attachment, supports actin‐driven migration, and retains functionality after 3 years of storage. Promoting cytoskeletal reorganization,
