spinqualitylabelsall models Crystal structure of telethonin (dark green) in complex with titin domains z1z2 dimer (grey and light green) and sulfate (PDB code 1ya5) Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate   Export Animated Image Function Telethonin is found in muscle cells and binds titin Z1-Z2 domains. It is essential to sarcomer assembly[1]. It is called titin cap protein. See also Group:MUZIC:Telethonin. Disease Mutations in telethonin lead to heart maladptation to biomechanical stress[2].
