Maintenance of sarcomeric integrity in adult muscle cells crucially depends on Z-disc anchored titin

Titin is considered an integrator of muscle cell proteins but direct evidence is limited. Here, titin is inactivated in adult mouse muscles, which causes sarcomere disassembly, protein mis-expression and force impairment, recapitulating key alterations in critical illness myopathy patient muscles.
