Localization of the Elastic Proteins in the Flight Muscle of <i>Manduca sexta</i>

Localization of the Elastic Proteins in the Flight Muscle of <i>Manduca sexta</i>

The flight muscle of <i>Manduca sexta</i> (DLM<sub>1</sub>) is an emerging model system for biophysical studies of muscle contraction. Unlike the well-studied indirect flight muscle of <i>Lethocerus</i> and <i>Drosophila</i>, the DLM<sub>1 </s...
