will be important for understanding fundamental aspects of the movement. Details of strain-dependent changes in nucleotide affinities, so crucial in models of myosin function, also need to be ...

An individual sarcomere contains many parallel actin (thin) and myosin (thick) filaments. The interaction of myosin and actin proteins is at the core of our current understanding of sarcomere ...

The two were trying to reconstitute, in vitro, the basic motility that occurs within muscle fibers. Vale, Sheetz, and Spudich wondered whether myosin movement also might account for the dynamic ...

Furthermore, cofilin, which promotes actin turnover, and myosin, which interacts with actin, were crucial for vesicle fusion.
