'''Myosin''' is comprised of 35 different classes of motor proteins, and is universal in all eukaryotic cells.<ref name="Varkuti">PMID: 22343723</ref> Myosin II is the more well known form of myosin; it acts in complex with [[actin]] to create a powerstroke and cause muscular contraction and relaxation.<ref name= | '''Myosin''' is comprised of 35 different classes of motor proteins, and is universal in all eukaryotic cells.<ref name="Varkuti">PMID: 22343723</ref> Myosin II is the more well known form of myosin; it acts in complex with [[actin]] to create a powerstroke and cause muscular contraction and relaxation.<ref name= | ||
"Ruppel">PMID: 8862525</ref> Myosin is the contractile unit of a sarcomere. Repeating units of sarcomeres make up a myofibril (muscle fiber), and bundles of fibers make up a skeletal muscle.
