3D Structure of Myosin Crossbridges in Insect Flight Muscletach with both myosin heads to actin. In contrast to a ∼5nm lever arm swing inferred during rigor induction, active myosin heads display a wide range of crossbridge angles, consistent with a power stroke greater than 10nm, that proceeds from a prestroke “up” configuration “down” to a rigor angle.

Using these systems, several mechanisms have been proposed to explain stretch activation: (i) matching of the thick and thin fi

Actin and Arthrinlose conservation of insect actins with all other actins, the presence of a single indirect flight muscle-specific isoform encoded by the . gene in ., that is not required for any other vital functions (and thus does not affect viability), has allowed this particular insect flight muscle actin to pl

Troponin, Tropomyosin and GST-2at are likely to sustain the coordinated physiology of the encoded proteins in each cellular context. In general, the diversity of protein isoforms is attained by differential exon splicing (insects) or independent gene expression (vertebrates). Flight is a well studied manifestation of the insect m

The mechanism of stretch activation is still not completely understood but it now appears that troponin-C, a normal regulatory component of the thin filaments, is involved. A small amount of high resolution information is now available f
