Next, the cells link those segments together into long titin polymers, resulting in fibers about 50 times larger than the average bacterial protein. The team used a "wet spinning" process to collect ...
A team at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) has developed an innovative method known as TEVs-TTN, for studying the specific mechanical functions of proteins through their ...
In striated muscle, the giant protein titin spans the entire length of a half-sarcomere and extends from the backbone of the thick filament, reversibly attaches to the thin filaments, and anchors to ...
