Abstract

This study demonstrates that the increase in force response appears to be due to a specific chemical process, known as S-glutathionylation, of a particular cysteine residue present on the troponin I molecule in fast-twitch muscle fibres, which is involved in sensing and responding to changes in intracellular calcium levels.
