A proposed role for non-junctional transverse tubules in skeletal muscle as flexible segments allowing expansion of the transverse network
Using a variety of technical approaches, we have detected the presence of continuous triads that cover the entire length of T tubules in the main white body muscles of several small fish. This is in contrast to the discontinuous association of SR with T tubules in the red muscles from the same fish...
