The heart is the only muscle that contracts and relaxes continuously over a lifetime to pump oxygen-rich blood to the body's organs. Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center now have identified a ...
In a decades-long effort, researchers have discovered how to tweak the molecular pathways that turn heart muscle motors up or ...
Atomic images of muscle molecules in action have now been captured by researchers, giving possibility of new nanomachines. At the molecular level, muscle contraction is defined by myosin molecules ...
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 95, No. 6 (Mar. 17, 1998), pp. 2944-2949 (6 pages) For more than 30 years, the fundamental goal in molecular ...
Osaka, Japan - Researchers at Osaka University used electron cryomicroscopy (CryoEM) to image essential cardiac muscle components, known as thin filaments, with unprecedented resolution. They also ...
The Journal of Cell Biology (JCB) is a not-for-profit publication, edited by scientists, and a leading life sciences journal. The JCB publishes papers on all aspects of cellular structure and function ...
Researchers at the University of Cincinnati say a regulatory protein found in skeletal muscle fiber may play an important role in the body's fight or flight response when encountering stressful ...
New research may explain premature births and failed inductions of labor. The study suggests a new mechanism by which the level of myosin phosphorylation is regulated in the pregnant uterus. New ...
At the molecular level, muscle contraction is defined by myosin molecules pulling actin filaments. New electron cryomicroscopy images with unprecedented resolution taken by researchers at Osaka ...
