Description
Description
The troponin complex associates with tropomyosin (Tm1) and controls the contraction of the striated muscle in response to changes in intracellular calcium concentration. Troponin C (TpnC) is the calcium-binding subunit of the troponin complex and, in insects, is encoded by multiple genes. (Adapted from FBrf0184125.)
