Titin folding observations may refine sarcomere models; leaves open functional implications for cardiac elasticity and disease.
This basic science study provides structural measurements of connectin (titin) and its fragments, estimating alpha-connectin length at approximately 1,250 nm.
Suzuki et al. (1994) studied this question. Connectin (titin) and its fragments was evaluated on Average lengths of alpha- and beta-connectin and 1,200 kDa fragment. The average lengths of alpha-connectin, beta-connectin, and the 1,200 kDa fragment were estimated to be approximately 1,250, 920, and 360 nm, respectively.
