Thick Filaments and Myosin Structure

Although there are many types of myosin, the most often talked about is our skeletal muscle myosin that is involved in muscle contraction. In this tutorial we will discuss the features of myosin and how they integrate to form thick filaments.

This video is amazing!! It explains exactly what I'm learning in class and it makes soooo much more sense than my professor! Thanks so much for creating and posting it :)

You are the boss. Thank you for taking the time to explain the structure so well. I am a biology student and my 200 question final is very near. My learning objective is to understand the structure and functions instead of just memorizing a bunch of random terms. Your videos have help me a lot.

thanks fot this video

Do tinin runs through the thick filament in a straight line or it spins between/around of myosin subunits?

[@bigslimshady98]

sir, are there any heavy chains in myosin? If so, where are they located?

[@namalilyas3292]

Yes there are two heavy chains in each myosin subunit which are present in tail of myosin

[@chaosawaits]

I believe, actually, that the heavy chain consists of both the head and tail part of the myosin. The neck is simply the region in between the tail and the head where two light chains wrap around the heavy chain.

[@alilbitofbakht2626]

Hey Sir! Can you please tell how each myosin filament is surrounded by six actin filament at each end?

[@daminibarjod9812]

I know that I can tell you
