Do Actomyosin Single-Molecule Mechanics Data Predict Mechanics of Contracting Muscle?

In muscle, but not in single-molecule mechanics studies, actin, myosin and accessory proteins are incorporated into a highly ordered myofilament lattice. In view of this difference we compare results from single-molecule studies and muscle mechanics and analyze to what degree data from the two types...
