Abstract excerpt
Difference in the phenotype of different mammalian muscle fibres are usually attributed to differences in the expression of the product of different myosin heavy chain (MyHC) genes, which are known as isoforms. We studied differences in phenotype among fibres containing a single MyHC isoform (slow/beta) of the masseter muscle of adult rabbits. Four different monoclonal antibodies to slow/beta MyHC were used to...
