Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Myofibrilla

👉 In physics and biomechanics, a myofibril is a type of muscle fiber. A myofibrilla is characterized by its small size and high tensile strength, which are important for maintaining muscle contraction in muscles like the diaphragm and abdominal muscles. Myofibrils are made up of two filaments, each composed of a protein called actin or sarcomere, and one myofilament. The actin filament is responsible for the contractility of the muscle fiber

myofibrillar

👉 A myofibrilla is a type of muscle fiber that is found in skeletal muscles. It is composed of two types of protein fibers - myosin and actin. Myofibrillas are responsible for contractility, which is how muscles move. They consist of three main types: troponin A, myofilament alpha, and myofilament beta. The troponin A is the primary component of the myofibrilla.
