A seven-membered aromatic ring compound. It is structurally related to a number of naturally occurring antifungal compounds (ANTIBIOTICS, ANTIFUNGAL).
Synonyms :
Tropomodulin - ț̢
An actin capping protein that binds to the pointed-end of ACTIN. It functions in the presence of TROPOMYOSIN to inhibit microfilament elongation.
Synonyms :
Tropomyosin - ț̢
A protein found in the thin filaments of muscle fibers. It inhibits contraction of the muscle unless its position is modified by TROPONIN.
Troponin - ț̢
One of the minor protein components of skeletal muscle. Its function is to serve as the calcium-binding component in the troponin-tropomyosin B-actin-myosin complex by conferring calcium sensitivity to the cross-linked actin and myosin filaments.
Synonyms :
Troponin C - ț̢
One of the three polypeptide chains that make up the TROPONIN complex of skeletal muscle. It is a calcium-binding protein.
