Published in 2018 at "Protein Science"

DOI: 10.1002/pro.3341

Abstract: The missense mutation R21H in striated muscle tropomyosin is associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a genetic cardiac disease and a leading cause of sudden cardiac death in young people. Tropomyosin adopts conformation of a coiled coil… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "European Food Research and Technology"

DOI: 10.1007/s00217-019-03402-0

Abstract: Tropomyosin (TM), acting as heat-stable protein, has a high homology of amino acid sequences with different sensitizations. Fish belongs to vertebrate and its TM owns less allergenicity, whereas shrimp and clam belong to invertebrate and… read more here.

The primary cause of muscle disfunction associated with substitutions E240K and R244G in tropomyosin is aberrant behavior of tropomyosin and response of actin and myosin during ATPase cycle.

Published in 2018 at "Archives of biochemistry and biophysics"

DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2018.03.002

Abstract: Using the polarized photometry technique we have studied the effects of two amino acid replacements, E240K and R244G, in tropomyosin (Tpm1.1) on the position of Tpm1.1 on troponin-free actin filaments and the spatial arrangement of… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications"

DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2017.10.109

Abstract: The actin cytoskeleton is modulated by regulatory actin-binding proteins which fine-tune the dynamic properties of the actin polymer to regulate function. One such actin-binding protein is tropomyosin (Tpm), a highly-conserved alpha-helical dimer which stabilises actin… read more here.

The reason for a high Ca2+-sensitivity associated with Arg91Gly substitution in TPM2 gene is the abnormal behavior and high flexibility of tropomyosin during the ATPase cycle.

Published in 2017 at "Biochemical and biophysical research communications"

DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2017.10.161

Abstract: Substitution of Arg for Gly residue in 91th position in β-tropomyosin caused by a point mutation in TPM2 gene is associated with distal arthrogryposis, characterized by a high Ca2+-sensitivity of myofilament and contracture syndrome. To… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Biochemical and biophysical research communications"

DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2021.03.010

Abstract: Tropomyosin and troponin regulate muscle contraction by participating in a macromolecular scale steric-mechanism to control myosin-crossbridge - actin interactions and consequently contraction. At low-Ca2+, the C-terminal 30% of troponin subunit-I (TnI) is proposed to trap… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Biophysical journal"

DOI: 10.1016/j.bpj.2019.05.009

Abstract: The initial binding of tropomyosin onto actin filaments and then its polymerization into continuous cables on the filament surface must be precisely tuned to overall thin-filament structure, function, and performance. Low-affinity interaction of tropomyosin with… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Current Biology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2018.05.053

Abstract: Tropomyosin proteins form stable coiled-coil dimers that polymerize along the α-helical groove of actin filaments [1]. The actin cytoskeleton consists of both co-polymers of actin and tropomyosin and polymers of tropomyosin-free actin [2]. The fundamental… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of Cell Science"

DOI: 10.1242/jcs.212654

Abstract: ABSTRACT Many actin filaments in animal cells are co-polymers of actin and tropomyosin. In many cases, non-muscle myosin II associates with these co-polymers to establish a contractile network. However, the temporal relationship of these three… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of Cell Science"

DOI: 10.1242/jcs.260288

Abstract: ABSTRACT Tropomyosins are structurally conserved α-helical coiled-coil proteins that bind along the length of filamentous actin (F-actin) in fungi and animals. Tropomyosins play essential roles in the stability of actin filaments and in regulating myosin… read more here.
