Abstract excerpt
The cardiac thin filament comprises F-actin, tropomyosin, and troponin (cTn). cTn is composed of three subunits: troponin C (cTnC), troponin I (cTnI), and troponin T (cTnT). To computationally study the effect of the thin filament on cTn activation events, we employed targeted molecular dynamics followed by umbrella sampling using a model of the thin filament to measure the thermodynamics of cTn transition...
