Light chain 2 profile and activity of human ventricular myosin during dilated cardiomyopathy. Identification of a causal agent for impaired myocardial function.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Membrane contact sites are fundamental for transmission and translation of signals in multicellular organisms. The junctional membrane complexes in the cardiac dyads, where transverse (T) tubules are juxtaposed to the sarcoplasmic reticulum, are a prime example. T-tubule uncoupling and remodeling are well-kn...
