A phylogenetic analysis of myosin heavy chain type II sequences corroborates that Acoela and Nemertodermatida are basal bilaterians.

Andersen JL, Aagaard P. Myosin heavy chain IIX overshooting in human skeletal muscle.

Willoughby DS and Rosene J. Effects of oral creatine and resistance training on myosin heavy chain expression.

Many of the downregulated genes are smooth muscle cytoskeletal elements, including TCAP (titin - cap), TPN1 (tropomyosin), DMD (dystrophin), SMTN (smoothelin), TAGLN (transgelin), MYH11 (smooth muscle myosin heavy chain 11), and CNN1 (smooth muscle calponin 1).

Researchers in the lab of Myra Lipes, M.D., have shown in both mice and people that myocarditis can be triggered by a protein called alpha - myosin heavy chain, which is found only in heart muscle and in especially low quantities in human heart tissue.

Stress fi bers of Hela cell: Antibody staining with Alexa Fluor 488 (green) for actin, Alexa Fluor 568 (red) for myosin heavy chain.

In our second study we found that heterozygous mutations in genes encoding β - myosin heavy chain (MYH7), α - cardiac actin (ACTC1), cardiac troponin T (TNNT2), cardiac myosin - binding protein C (MYBPC3), and alpha - tropomyosin (TPM1) account for 30 % of cases of isolated LVNC in adult patients (Probst et al., 2011).

Furthermore, the studies also indicated that alpha - myosin heavy chain was not present in human thymus and that the T cells that sought out the protein could be found in the blood of healthy people.

11 mutations were identified in 3 distinct genes: β - myosin heavy chain (MYH7), α - cardiac actin (ACTC), and Troponin T (TNNT2).

The researchers found, however, that in mice these specialized training cells couldn't train on the alpha - myosin heavy chain protein because none of that protein was being produced in those cells.

«We're trying to figure ways to identify the fragment of alpha - myosin heavy chain that is different, because that could aid in developing diagnostic tools and therapies,» says Dr. Lipes.

To accomplish this, we used homologous recombination to ablate nonmuscle myosin heavy chain (NMHC) II - B by inserting cDNA encoding green fluorescent protein (GFP)- NMHC II - A into the first coding exon of the Myh10 gene, thereby placing GFP - NMHC II - A under control of the endogenous II - B promoter.

These changes in mitochondria - and calcium - related markers occurred without any changes in the myosin heavy chain isoform composition of these muscles, as assessed by quantitative PCR (qPCR)(data not shown).
