Should not change clinical practice; leaves open temperature effects on human myosin mechanics.
Higher temperatures increase the isometric force generated by muscle myosin but reduce the stroke length at low loads, suggesting the working stroke is driven by a series of state transitions rather than the release of stored mechanical energy.
Decostre et al. (2005) studied this question.
