Structural highlights
1mv4 is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Rattus norvegicus. Full experimental information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
TPM1_RAT Binds to actin filaments in muscle and non-muscle cells. Plays a central role, in association with the troponin complex, in the calcium dependent regulation of vertebrate striated muscle contraction. Smooth muscle contraction is regulated by interaction with caldesmon. In non-muscle cells is implicated in stabilizing cytoskeleton actin filaments.
