Calorimetric studies of adenosine 5'-triphosphate hydrolysis by heavy meromyosin.

abstract：:Calcium dynamics and its linked molecular interactions cause a variety of biological responses; thus, exploiting techniques for detecting both concurrently is essential. Here we describe a method for measuring the cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) and protein-protein interactions within the same cell, using...
