Mechanical properties of cardiac titin's N2B-region by single-molecule atomic force spectroscopy.
Titin is a giant protein responsible for passive-tension generation in muscle sarcomeres. Here, we used single-molecule AFM force spectroscopy to investigate the mechanical characteristics of a recombinant construct from the human cardiac-specific N2B-region, which harbors a 572-residue unique seque...
