The alpha-tropomyosin protein is an essential molecular level component which plays a critical role during the contraction of the heart on every beat. Now researchers at Florida State University have set two important benchmarks in the study of this essential human cardiac protein. Using an imaging method called atomic force microscopy, Loong achieved two "firsts": the first direct imaging of individual alpha-tropomyosin molecules, which are very small - roughly ...
