Tissue Specificity | Heart. The fetal heart shows a greater expression in the atrium than in the ventricle, while the adult heart shows a greater expression in the ventricle than in the atrium. Isoform 6 predominates in normal adult heart. Isoforms 1, 7 and 8 are expressed in fetal heart. Isoform 7 is also expressed in failing adult heart. |
Post Translational Modifications | Phosphorylation at Thr-213 by PRKCA induces significant reduction in myofilament calcium sensitivity and actomyosin ATPase activity. |
Function | Troponin T is the tropomyosin-binding subunit of troponin, the thin filament regulatory complex which confers calcium-sensitivity to striated muscle actomyosin ATPase activity. |
