Synchrotron Radiation X-ray Diffraction Techniques Applied to Insect Flight Muscle

X-ray fiber diffraction is a powerful tool used for investigating the molecular structure of muscle and its dynamics during contraction. This technique has been successfully applied not only to skeletal and cardiac muscles of vertebrates but also to insect flight muscle. Generally, insect flight mus...
