Abstract excerpt
A procedure for the isolation of regulated native thin filaments from the indirect flight muscles (IFM) of Drosophila melanogaster is described. These are the first striated invertebrate thin filaments to show Ca-regulated in vitro motility. Regulated native thin filaments from wild type and a troponin I mutant, held-up-2, were compared by in vitro motility assays that showed that the mutant troponin I caused...
