Abstract excerpt
In order to incorporate human cardiac troponin I (TnI) and troponin C (TnC) into guinea pig skinned cardiac trabeculae, fibres were treated with vanadate to extract endogenous TnI and TnC using established protocols. After addition of human TnI and TnC force was inadequately restored and it was found that the vanadate treatment had unexpectedly also removed some troponin T. To recover Ca(2+)-sensitive force, the...
