Abstract: | Models of a thin filament based on various G-actin atomic structures and modes of their packing into helical structures were considered. The calculated intensities of actin layer lines were compared with the X-ray data for thin fiber bundles of a relaxed rabbit skeletal muscle. The effect of the main components of thin filament on the intensity of actin layer lines was also analyzed. The F-actin PDB 3BYH model gave the best fit to the experimental data. |
