Myosin-Binding Protein C is Key to Healthy Heartbeats (2 of 2)

Caption

The spatial relationship between the calcium release channels (green) and myosin-binding protein C (red) in single cardiac sarcomeres can be visualized with confocal microscopy (low resolution) or STORM imaging (high resolution). Scale bars = 2 µm. This material relates to a paper that appeared in the Feb. 20, 2015, issue of Science, published by AAAS. The paper, by M.J. Previs at University of Vermont in Burlington, Vt., and colleagues was titled, "Myosin-Binding Protein C is Key to Healthy Heartbeats."
