Target Details for Tropomyosin

Target: Tropomyosin (TPM1) (Tropomyosin 1 (Alpha) (TPM1))

Alternative Name: Tropomyosin 1 (TPM1 Products)

Background: TPM1 is a member of the tropomyosin family of highly conserved, widely distributed actin-binding proteins involved in the contractile system of striated and smooth muscles and the cytoskeleton of non-muscle cells. Tropomyosin is composed of two alpha-helical chains arranged as a coiled-coil. It is polymerized end to end along the two grooves of actin filaments and provides stability to the filaments. The protein is one type of alpha helical chain that forms the predominant tropomyosin of striated muscle, where it also functions in association with the troponin complex to regulate the calcium-dependent interaction of actin and myosin during muscle contraction.

Molecular Weight: 31 kDa (MW of target protein)

Pathways: Regulation of Actin Filament Polymerization
