Descriptor troponina
Scope note: Uno de los componentes proteicos menores del músculo esquelético y cardíaco. Funciona como el componente de unión al calcio en un complejo con la TROPOMIOSINA BETA, la ACTINA y la MIOSINA, confiriendo sensibilidad al calcio a los filamentos entrecruzados de actina y miosina. La troponina en sí es un complejo de tres proteínas reguladoras (TROPONINA C, TROPONINA I y TROPONINA T).

Scope note: One of the minor protein components of skeletal and cardiac muscles. It functions as the calcium-binding component in a complex with BETA-TROPOMYOSIN; ACTIN; and MYOSIN and confers calcium sensitivity to the cross-linked actin and myosin filaments. Troponin itself is a complex of three regulatory proteins (TROPONIN C; TROPONIN I; and TROPONIN T).
Annotation: TROPONIN C; TROPONIN I; & TROPONIN T are also available
