Abstract excerpt
Phosphorylation of two adjacent serine residues in the unique N-terminal extension of cardiac muscle troponin I (cTnI) is known to decrease the Ca2+-sensitivity of cardiac myofilaments. To probe the structural significance of the N-terminal extension, we have constructed two cTnI mutants each con...
