A
  1. Tropomyosin
  2. Troponin (TnC, TnT, TnI)
25
Q

A 40-nm-long coil of TWO POLYPEPTIDE CHAINS located in the groove between the two twisted actin strands.

A

26
Q

A complex of THREE SUBUNITS: TnT, which attaches to tropomyosin; TnC, which binds Ca2+; and TnI, which regulates the actin-myosin interaction.

A

Troponin

27
Q

Actin filaments are ANCHORED perpendicularly on the Z DISC
by the actin-binding protein.

32
Q

It contains a MYOSIN-BINDING PROTEIN that HOLDS THICK FILAMENTS.

A

Myomesin

33
Q

This ENZYME CATALYZE is the TRANSFER OF PHOSPHATE GROUP from PHOSPHOCREATINE, a storage form of high-energy phosphate groups, to ADP, helping to supply ATP for muscle contraction.

A

Transverse or T-tubules

37
Q

Cisternae that are ADJACENT TO T-TUBULES forming a TRIAD.

A

Terminal Cisternae

38
Q

It is the contraction induced when an action potential arrives at a synapse and is transmitted along the T-tubules to terminal cisternae of the sarcoplasmic reticulum to trigger Ca2+ release.

A
