A newly identified 'ankle' joint in the myosin lever arm provides structural insights into how strain promotes the attachment of the second myosin head to actin during isometric contraction.
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), a peer reviewed journal of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) - an authoritative source of high-impact, original research that broadly spans the biological, physical, and social sciences.
Pylypenko et al. (2010) conducted an editorial in Muscle contraction and myosin structure. A newly identified 'ankle' joint in the myosin lever arm provides structural insights into how strain promotes the attachment of the second myosin head to actin during isometric contraction.
