[[Tropomyosin]] (TM) is an actin binding protein that contributes to many cellular functions.

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.
