摘要:
We measured forces generated by myosin molecules and a single actin filament using an optical trap system. The force per unit length of actin filament did not differ significantly between cardiac myosin isoforms, V-1 and V-3. This indicates that the ability to generate force is equal between V-1 and V-3, despite their difference in the unloaded sliding velocity past actin.
