Effects of calcium and nucleotides on the structure of insect flight muscle thin filaments.

Journal of muscle research and cell motility - 1 May 1998

Ruiz T, Bullard B, Lepault J

Abstract excerpt

The structure of the insect flight muscle thin filament has been studied using a Drosophila mutant (Ifm(2)2) which does not contain thick filaments. Thin filaments that are biochemically identical to those of the wild type can be isolated free from thick filament contamination. We show that isolated thin filaments have different symmetries depending upon the calcium concentration. While the filaments mainly...
