Abstract
We have chemically synthesized two peptides corresponding to the binding regions of troponin-I for troponin-C. Electrophoretic analysis has shown that one of the two peptides binds Ca2+-dependently to troponin-C and the other Ca2+-independ-ently. The biological significance of the results is discussed. The interaction of the peptides with calmodulin was different from that with troponin-C.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
