Abstract: Myocardium of mammals contains a wide range of isoforms of proteins that provides contractile function of the heart. These are two isoforms of ventricular and two of atrial myosin, α- and β-tropomyosin, and two isoforms… read more here.

Abstract: ABSTRACT Cells of transporting epithelia are characterized by the presence of abundant F-actin-based microvilli on their apical surfaces. Likewise, auditory hair cells have highly reproducible rows of apical stereocilia (giant microvilli) that convert mechanical sound… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2020.618261
Abstract: The actin cytoskeleton of eukaryotic cells is a dynamic, fibrous network that is regulated by the concerted action of actin-binding proteins (ABPs). In particular, rapid polarization of cells in response to internal and external stimuli… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms21124285
Abstract: In striated muscle the extent of the overlap between actin and myosin filaments contributes to the development of force. In slow twitch muscle fibers actin filaments are longer than in fast twitch fibers, but the… read more here.
