We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

Tropomyosin (TM) is an actin binding protein, which consists of a coiled-coil dimer and forms a polymer along the length of actin by a head-to-tail overlay. Its role in muscle mechanics has been well established, but it role in non-muscle systems is becoming evermore clear.
