    Surimi (Japanese: 擂り身 / ... The curing of the fish paste is caused by the polymerization of myosin when heated. The species of fish is the most important factor ...

  3. MYH9 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MYH9

    Myosin-9 also known as myosin, heavy chain 9, non-muscle or non-muscle myosin heavy chain IIa (NMMHC-IIA) is a protein which in humans is encoded by the MYH9 gene. [5] [6]Non-muscle myosin IIA (NM IIA) is expressed in most cells and tissues where it participates in a variety of processes requiring contractile force, such as cytokinesis, cell migration, polarization and adhesion, maintenance of ...

  4. Myostatin inhibitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myostatin_inhibitor

    Myostatin inhibitor. Myostatin inhibitors are a class of drugs that work by blocking the effects of myostatin, which inhibits muscle growth. In animal models and limited human studies, myostatin inhibitors have increased muscle size. They are being developed to treat obesity, sarcopenia, muscular dystrophy, and other illnesses.

    Aficamten. Aficamten (CK-274) is a cardiac myosin inhibitor [1] developed by Cytokinetics for the treatment of obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. [2][3][4]

  6. Myosin - Wikipedia

    Atoms in the heavy chain are colored pink (on the left-hand side); atoms in the light chains are colored faded-orange and faded-yellow (also on the left-hand side). Myosins (/ ˈmaɪəsɪn, - oʊ -/ [1][2]) are a superfamily of motor proteins best known for their roles in muscle contraction and in a wide range of other motility processes in ...

  7. Myofilament - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myofilament

    H2.00.05.0.00006. FMA. 67897. Anatomical terms of microanatomy. [edit on Wikidata] Myofilaments are the three protein filaments of myofibrils in muscle cells. The main proteins involved are myosin, actin, and titin. Myosin and actin are the contractile proteins and titin is an elastic protein. The myofilaments act together in muscle contraction ...

  8. Motor protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_protein

    Myosin II is an elongated protein that is formed from two heavy chains with motor heads and two light chains. Each myosin head contains actin and ATP binding site. The myosin heads bind and hydrolyze ATP, which provides the energy to walk toward the plus end of an actin filament. Myosin II are also vital in the process of cell division. For ...

    Mavacamten. Mavacamten, sold under the brand name Camzyos, is a medication used to treat obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. [8][9] Mavacamten is a small-molecule allosteric [10] and cardiac myosin inhibitor. [8] It was developed by MyoKardia, a subsidiary of Bristol Myers Squibb. [11] In clinical studies, mavacamten has demonstrated ...
