Adaptive fish myosin kinetics suggest pressure-tolerant designs; leaves open extension to human cardiac myosin function.
Coryphaenoides myosin ATPase exhibits adaptive kinetic changes that render it relatively insensitive to the high pressure and low temperature of its deep-sea environment.
Dreizen et al. (1971) studied this question.
