Titin: major myofibrillar components of striated muscle.
Electrophoretic analyses of protein components of striated muscle myofibril purified from various vertebrate and invertebrate species revealed that proteins much larger than myosin heavy chain are present in significant amounts. To define possible roles of these heretofore unidentified proteins, we purified a combination of two uncommonly large proteins, designated as titin, from chicken breast...

متن کاملStretching molecular springs: elasticity of titin filaments in vertebrate striated muscle.
Titin, the giant protein of striated muscle, provides a continuous link between the Z-disk and the M-line of a sarcomere. The elastic I-band section of titin comprises two main structural elements, stretches of immunoglobulin-like domains and a unique sequence, the PEVK segment. Both elements contribute to the extensibility and passive force development of nonactivated muscle. Extensibility of ...
متن کاملTumors of striated muscle.
Three benign forms of muscle tumors and three variants of rhabdomyosarcoma are discussed from the point of view of their histology and behabior. Recent combined modality therapy has significantly improved the prognosis in at least the embryonal form of rhabdomyosarcoma.
متن کاملTitin is an extraordinarily long, flexible, and slender myofibrillar protein.
" Titin " is a term used to describe a pair of closely related megadalton polypeptides that together are the third most abundant myofibrillar protein in a wide range of striated muscles. It has been proposed that titin and another giant protein, nebulin , are the major components of an elastic cytoskeletal lattice within the sarcomere. We have now purified the leading band, titin -2 (T2), of th...
