Genetics
. 2024 Nov;
229(1):1-34.
PMID: 39485824
Myosin storage myopathy (MSM) is a rare skeletal muscle disorder caused by mutations in the slow muscle/β-cardiac myosin heavy chain (MHC) gene. MSM missense mutations frequently disrupt the tail's stabilizing...

Nature
. 2023 Nov;
623(7988):853-862.
PMID: 37914935
Pumping of the heart is powered by filaments of the motor protein myosin that pull on actin filaments to generate cardiac contraction. In addition to myosin, the filaments contain cardiac...

J Gen Physiol
. 2022 Nov;
155(1.
PMID: 36346431
Under relaxing conditions, the two heads of myosin II interact with each other and with the proximal part (S2) of the myosin tail, establishing the interacting-heads motif (IHM), found in...

Interacting-heads motif explains the X-ray diffraction pattern of relaxed vertebrate skeletal muscle
Koubassova N, Tsaturyan A, Bershitsky S, Ferenczi M, Padron R, Craig R
Biophys J
. 2022 Mar;
121(8):1354-1366.
PMID: 35318005
Electron microscopy (EM) shows that myosin heads in thick filaments isolated from striated muscles interact with each other and with the myosin tail under relaxing conditions. This "interacting-heads motif" (IHM)...

Craig R, Padron R
J Gen Physiol
. 2021 Dec;
154(1).
PMID: 34889960
Super-relaxation is a state of muscle thick filaments in which ATP turnover by myosin is much slower than that of myosin II in solution. This inhibited state, in equilibrium with...

Ma W, Duno-Miranda S, Irving T, Craig R, Padron R
J Gen Physiol
. 2021 Jan;
153(3).
PMID: 33480967
Myosin molecules in the relaxed thick filaments of striated muscle have a helical arrangement in which the heads of each molecule interact with each other, forming the interacting-heads motif (IHM)....

Yang S, Tiwari P, Lee K, Sato O, Ikebe M, Padron R, et al.
Nature
. 2020 Dec;
588(7838):521-525.
PMID: 33268893
Myosin II is the motor protein that enables muscle cells to contract and nonmuscle cells to move and change shape. The molecule has two identical heads attached to an elongated...

Padron R, Ma W, Duno-Miranda S, Koubassova N, Lee K, Pinto A, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2020 May;
117(22):11865-11874.
PMID: 32444484
Striated muscle contraction involves sliding of actin thin filaments along myosin thick filaments, controlled by calcium through thin filament activation. In relaxed muscle, the two heads of myosin interact with...

. 2020 Jan;
524(1):198-204.
PMID: 31983430
Thick filaments from some striated muscles are regulated by phosphorylation of myosin regulatory light chains (RLCs). A tarantula thick filament quasi-atomic model achieved by cryo-electron microscopy has advanced our understanding...
