  2. Troponin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troponin

    Troponin activation. Troponin C (red) binds Ca2+, which stabilizes the activated state, where troponin I (yellow) is no longer bound to actin. Troponin T (blue) anchors the complex on tropomyosin. Troponin is found in both skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle, but the specific versions of troponin differ between types of muscle. The main ...

  3. Calcium signaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_signaling

    Many of Ca 2+ mediated events occur when the released Ca 2+ binds to and activates the regulatory protein calmodulin. Calmodulin may activate the Ca 2+-calmodulin-dependent protein kinases, or may act directly on other effector proteins. [14] Besides calmodulin, there are many other Ca 2+-binding proteins that mediate the biological effects of ...

  4. Cardiac excitation-contraction coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_excitation...

    Contraction ends when the Ca 2+ is removed from the cell. When this happens, the troponin changes back to its original shape, blocking the binding sites on actin and preventing the formation of crossbridges. This decrease in Ca 2+ within the cell is brought about by a variety of proteins, known collectively as ion transporters.

  5. Troponin I - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troponin_I

    Blue = troponin C; green = troponic I; magenta = troponin T. [1] Troponin. Troponin I is a cardiac and skeletal muscle protein family. It is a part of the troponin protein complex, where it binds to actin in thin myofilaments to hold the actin-tropomyosin complex in place. Troponin I prevents myosin from binding to actin in relaxed muscle. When ...

  6. Voltage-gated calcium channel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage-gated_calcium_channel

    The calcium binds to the calcium release channels (RYRs) in the SR, opening them; this phenomenon is called "calcium-induced calcium release", or CICR. However the RYRs are opened, either through mechanical-gating or CICR, Ca 2+ is released from the SR and is able to bind to troponin C on the actin filaments.

  7. Calcium sparks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_sparks

    This produces an increase in Ca 2+ concentration across the whole cell (not just locally) and is known as a whole cell Ca 2+ transient. This Ca 2+ then binds to a protein, called troponin, initiating contraction, through a group of proteins known as myofilaments. [16] In smooth muscle cells, the Ca 2+ released during a spark is used for muscle ...

  9. TNNT2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TNNT2

    Cardiac muscle troponin T (cTnT) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TNNT2 gene. [5] [6] Cardiac TnT is the tropomyosin-binding subunit of the troponin complex, which is located on the thin filament of striated muscles and regulates muscle contraction in response to alterations in intracellular calcium ion concentration.
