The effect of the dilated cardiomyopathy-causing mutation Glu54Lys of alpha-tropomyosin on actin-myosin interactions during the ATPase cycle.

In order to understand how the Glu54Lys mutation of alpha-tropomyosin affects actomyosin interactions, we labeled SH1 helix of myosin subfragment-1 (S1) and the actin subdomain-1 with fluorescent probes. These proteins were incorporated into ghost muscle fibers and their conformational states were m...
