The amino terminus of muscle tropomyosin is a major determinant for function.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 5 Jan 1990

Cho Y J, Liu J, Hitchcock-DeGregori S E

Abstract excerpt

The amino-terminal region of muscle tropomyosin is highly conserved among muscle and 284-residue non-muscle tropomyosins. Analysis of fusion and nonfusion striated alpha-tropomyosins and a mutant in which residues 1-9 have been deleted has shown that the amino terminus is crucial for function. The presence of 80 amino acids of a nonstructural influenza virus protein (NS1) on the amino terminus of tropomyosin...
