Alternative splicing, muscle calcium sensitivity, and the modulation of dragonfly flight performance.
Calcium sensitivity of myosin cross-bridge activation in striated muscles commonly varies during ontogeny and in response to alterations in muscle usage, but the consequences for whole-organism physiology are not well known. Here we show that the relative abundances of alternatively spliced transcripts of the calcium regulatory protein troponin T (TnT) vary widely in flight muscle of Libellula ...
متن کاملRole of calcium sensitivity modulation in skeletal muscle performance.
A common mechanism affecting Ca(2+) sensitivity in skeletal muscle is the proximity of myosin heads with actin filaments, a function of myofilament lattice spacing and myosin head mobility with respect to the myosin filament. This is an important mechanism of pCa(2+)(50) modulation by length, pH, regulatory light-chain phosphorylation, and temperature.
متن کاملParasites, proteomics and performance: effects of gregarine gut parasites on dragonfly flight muscle composition and function.
In previous work, we found that dragonflies infected with gregarine gut parasites have reduced muscle power output, loss of lipid oxidation in their flight muscles, and a suite of symptoms similar to mammalian metabolic syndrome. Here, we test the hypothesis that changes in muscle protein composition underlie the observed changes in contractile performance. We found that gregarine infection was...
