The molecular basis of thin filament activation: from single molecule to muscle
Abstract For muscles to effectively power locomotion, trillions of myosin molecules must rapidly attach and detach from the actin thin filament. This is accomplished by precise regulation of the availability of the myosin binding sites on actin (i.e. activation). Both calcium (Ca++) and myosin bindi...
