Single Molecule Mechanics and Kinetics of Cardiac Myosin Interacting with Regulated Thin Filaments
2023-01-10
Abstract excerpt
The cardiac cycle is a tightly regulated process wherein the heart generates force to pump blood to the body during systole and then relaxes during diastole. Disruption of this finely tuned cycle can lead to a range of diseases including cardiomyopathies and heart failure. Cardiac contraction is driven by the molecular motor myosin, which pulls regulated thin filaments in a calcium-dependent manner. In some muscle...
