MYBPC1: Proteins and Enzymes

MYBPC1, also known as Myosin-binding protein C, slow-type, is a protein with 10 isoforms ranging from a 1,120 amino acid isoform that is 126 kDa to a 1,173 amino acid isoform that is 131 kDa, located in the crossbridge region of vertebrate striated muscle a bands, plays an important role in muscle contraction by recruiting muscle-type creatine kinase to myosin filaments and modifies the activity of actin-activated myosin ATPase. Studies are being performed on the relationship of this protein to ...
