- Summary:
- Caldesmon is one of the most abundant proteins detected in smooth muscle and in a number of non-muscle cells. It binds actin, myosin, tropomyosin and calmodulin and is believed to play in smooth muscle a regulatory role similar to that of troponin in striated muscle. This book examines the anatomy and physiology of caldesmon proteins.
- Contents:
- Preparation and purification of caldesmon
- Structure of caldesmon molecule
- Interaction of caldesmon with other proteins
- The role of caldesmon in thin filaments
- Cell and tissue distribution of caldesmon.
