Abstract excerpt
Calponin is a smooth muscle specific, actin-, tropomyosin- and calmodulin-binding protein thought to be involved in some way in the regulation or modulation of contraction. Here we describe the cloning and bacterial expression of two calponin species from murine and porcine smooth muscle tissues. Primary and secondary structural analyses of the deduced amino acid sequences revealed a high degree of homology to...
