Ochiai Y., . and Wang G. F., . and Ozawa H., . and Watabe S., . Characterization of molluscan muscle based on the properties of major myofibrillar protein components. pp. 403-414. ISSN 0116-6514
Abstract
For the deeper understanding of the molluscan muscles for their effective utilization the major protein components of molluscan mantle muscle namely myosin (heavy chain) and tropomyosin were investigated from the viewpoint of structure-stability relationships. Molluscan myosin heavy chains are unique in that they have several additional residues in the rod region forming -helical coiled-coilstructure. On the other hand molluscan tropomyosins clearly differed from other orthologous proteins suggesting that the structural uniqueness gives rise to their characteristics such as allergenicity. The amino acid sequence data together with thermodynamic analysis data could be useful to estimate the stability (or instability) of these protein components and further the properties of the muscle per se.
