Thin filament extensibility contributes ~50% to sarcomere compliance; extends actin mechanics insights while leaving human cardiac translation open.
Approximately 50% of the sarcomere compliance of active muscle is due to the extensibility of thin filaments, influenced by the presence of tropomyosin.
Kojima et al. (1994) studied this question.
