Does not support clinical translation; leaves open whether myosin light chain isoforms regulate human cross-bridge kinetics.
Does myosin light chain substitution alter cross-bridge cycling kinetics and force development in transgenic animal hearts?
Myosin light chains can control cross-bridge cycling and alter force development without necessarily leading to pathological cardiac remodeling or hypertrophy.
Sanbe et al. (2000) studied this question.
