Cardiac Troponin T Protein (Active)
Recombinant full length human cardiac Troponin T protein.
Product Specifications
Background
Troponin T is one of 3 subunits that form the troponin complex of the thin filaments of striated muscle, the others are troponin I and troponin C. Troponin T was discovered by the German physician Hugo A. Katus. It binds to tropomyosin and helps position it on actin And in a less complicated light, Troponin T modulates contraction of striated muscle. In patients with stable coronary artery disease, troponin T concentrations have been found to be significantly associated with the incidence of cardiovascular death and heart failure, but not with myocardial infarction.
