Abstract excerpt
Two cTnC variants, L57Q and I61Q, both of which are located on helix C within the N domain of cTnC, were originally reported in the skeletal muscle system [Tikunova, Davis, J. Biol. Chem. 279 (2004) 35341-35352], as the analogous L58Q and I62Q sTnC, and demonstrated a decreased Ca(2+) binding affinity. Here, we provide detailed characterization of structure-function relationships for these two cTnC variants, to...
