Alzheimer's disease is a fatal and neurodegenerative disease with as many as 5.3 million Americans living with the disease. One of the characteristic hallmarks of Alzheimer's is the amyloid plaques that build up around the ...
Thermodynamic Investigation into the Binding Properties of Cardiac Troponin (Human and Bovine)
(East Carolina University, 2010)
Troponin is an integral protein in the mechanism of muscle contraction. In order to induce cardiac muscle contraction, Ca[superscript]2[superscript]+ must bind to the TnC subunit (calcium binding subunit) of troponin to ...
