Implication

Hypothesis-generating for myosin regulation in model organisms; leaves open any relevance to human cardiac contractility.

Structured PICO

Population

Dictyostelium discoideum model

Intervention

Isolation and characterization of cDNAs encoding the regulatory light chains (RMLC)

Outcome

cDNA sequence and predicted amino acid sequence of RMLC

The study successfully isolated and characterized the cDNA for Dictyostelium regulatory myosin light chain, revealing its sequence homology to calmodulin and coordinated expression during development.
