Emerging issues for tropomyosin structure, regulation, function and pathology.

Abstract:

:There is a growing awareness of the role of tropomyosin in the regulation of the actin filament. Work in the field is increasingly directed at understanding the mechanisms of function at both a molecular and atomic level and developing therapeutic strategies to treat tropomyosin-based pathology. This chapter highlights unresolved issues that cross the boundaries between individual chapters and are likely to be fertile areas of research in the future.

  • Volume effects of starch-water interactions.

    abstract::Volume changes arising from the sorption of water by three starches have been determined by dilatometry. By a recently described method, parameters of the G.A.B. equation have been used to resolve the volume changes into contributions from strongly sorbed water molecules in contact with the surface and from weakly sor...
