| 1. | The myofibrils of smooth muscle cells are not arranged into sarcomeres.
|
| 2. | It links the myofibrils laterally by connecting the Z-disks.
|
| 3. | This enables proper assembly of myofibrils and thus, more organized sarcomeres.
|
| 4. | It also contains fewer myofibrils than usual myocardial cells.
|
| 5. | Muscle fibers are in turn composed of myofibrils.
|
| 6. | The myofibrils are long protein bundles about 1 micrometer in diameter each containing myofilaments.
|
| 7. | These mutations cause myofibril and myocyte structural abnormalities and possible deficiencies in force generation.
|
| 8. | This is not to be confused with myofibril hypertrophy which leads to strength gains.
|
| 9. | This gene encodes a protein that is involved in the regulation of myofibril organization.
|
| 10. | :A muscle's strength is dependent largely on how many myofibrils it contains.
