Abstract excerpt
To examine the importance of the central alpha-helix of troponin C (TnC) we have bacterially expressed one of the isoforms of barnacle TnC (BTnC2), BTnCWT, but without the aspartate residue at position 80 in the central helix (BTnC80-). This manipulation is expected to produce an approximately 100 degrees axial rotation of the C-domain with respect to the N-domain, and a net charge change of -1. BTnC80- mutant...
