Scientists at the University of Leeds have used cryo-electron microscopy to reveal how platelet myosin stays inactive until needed for blood clotting. The study identified structural 'off-switch' ...

For the first time, scientists at University of Leeds reveal a complex mechanism behind blood clotting. The findings, ...

The team used cryo-electron tomography to visualize how forces generated by myosin impact the structure of actin filaments ...

"This process appears to be regulated by myosin-binding protein-C (cMyBP-C), which is a heart muscle protein," study author Kerry McDonald said. "Our study investigated its role in cardiac muscle ...
