Three-dimensional structure of the basketweave Z-band in midshipman fish sonic muscle.
Burgoyne, T; Heumann, JM; Morris, EP; Knupp, C; Liu, J; et al. (NATL ACAD SCIENCES, 2019-07-30)Striated muscle enables movement in all animals by the contraction of myriads of sarcomeres joined end to end by the Z-bands. The contraction is due to tension generated in each sarcomere between overlapping arrays of actin ... -
Zebrafish as a model for cardiac disease; Cryo-EM structure of native cardiac thin filaments from Danio Rerio.
Bradshaw, M; Squire, JM; Morris, E; Atkinson, G; Richardson, R; et al. (SPRINGER, 2023-09-01)Actin, tropomyosin and troponin, the proteins that comprise the contractile apparatus of the cardiac thin filament, are highly conserved across species. We have used cryo-EM to study the three-dimensional structure of the ...
