myosin

Converse of object

• call: The thick filament is made of a protein called myosin.
• express: In addition to the one myosin II gene, Dictyostelium expresses two myosin XI genes and at least six myosin I genes.

Preposition: in

• other: It is unclear whether, as all other myosins studied so far, MyoK carries a light chain bound to its short neck.
• skeletal: Not skeletal muscle myosin, but informative ( we think!
• thick: Biochemists call these thick muscle fibers myosin heavy chain proteins ( MHC ).

Modifies a noun
