Resolving the kinetics of an ensemble of muscle myosin motors via a temperature-dependent fitting procedure
Valentina Buonfiglio, Niccolò Zagli, Irene Pertici +3
A data fitting procedure is devised and thoroughly tested to provide self-consistent estimates of the relevant mechanokinetic parameters involved in a plausible scheme underpinning…

Force and kinetics of fast and slow muscle myosin determined with a synthetic sarcomere-like nanomachine
Valentina Buonfiglio, Irene Pertici, Matteo Marcello +7
Myosin II is the muscle molecular motor that works in two bipolar arrays in each thick filament of the striated (skeletal and cardiac) muscle, converting the chemical energy into s…
