Modulations of calcium binding and of energy coupling by the calcium pump of sarcoplasmic reticulum
… Franzini-Armstrong, 1980). On each side of the T-tubules there are enlarged areas known as cisternae, with branched areas between the cisternae known as the longitudinal elements. The juncture of the three membranes (two terminal cisternae and one Ttubule) is referred to as the triad. The junction …

Functional Characterization of Amphiphysin in Drosophila melanogaster
Amphiphysin (Amph) is a multi-domain protein that has been implicated in synaptic vesicle (SV) endocytosis. In vertebrates, Amph1 associates with SVs and binds to known endocytic proteins, such as dynamin and clathrin. Overexpression of the vertebrate Amph1 SH3 domain is sufficient to inhibit SV …

Characterization of the sarcolemma in limb-girdle muscular dystrophy
… to the plasma membrane, but also to developing T-tubules and intracellular vesicles. At the sarcolemma, dysferlin was shown to be crucial for efficient membrane repair, although it has been proposed to have a role in many other cellular functions. LGMD 1C is caused by mutations in the caveolin-3 …

The role of intracellular Ca2+ in the arrhythmogenic activity of pulmonary vein cardiomyocytes
… they were shown to possess transverse (T)-tubules, which are involved in co-ordinating the intracellular Ca2+ transient in response to depolarisation. This differed from atrial myocytes where a T-tubule system was not observed. Furthermore, the L-type Ca2+ channels and Na+/Ca2+ exchanger …
