Main components of a Myofibril
- Z-line
- M-line
- Actin Filament
- Myosin Filament
- Myosin Head
- Titin
- Sarcomere
Energy Equation
ATP <--(Myosin ATPase)--> ADP + P + energy
Actin Filament
1) G-Actin molecule
2) Tropomyosin Strand (spans 7 G-Actins)
3) Troponin molecule
3 Subunits of Troponin
1) Troponin-C (binds to Ca2+)

2) Troponin-T (binds to Tropomyosin)

3) Troponin-I (binds to Actin)
Neuron vs. Nerve
NEURON = Nerve cell

NERVE = collection of axons
3 Types of Neurons
1) Unipolar
2) Bipolar
3) Multipolar
Steps to Control a Muscle
1) Electrical signal arrives @ terminal ending, Ca2+ channels open
2) Ca2+ enters pre-synaptic membrane, helps bind vesicle to channels
3) ACh crosses synaptic cleft, binds to ACh receptors
4) ACh opens Na+ channels, Na+ flows into muscle cell
5) Action Potential passes through T-tubules
6) Signals releases Ca2+ from terminal cistern of sarcoplasmic reticulum
7) Ca2+ binds to Troponin-C, shifts tropomyosin strand
8) Myosin heads bind to G-Actin to produce force
Muscle Hypertrophy vs. Hyperplasia
Hypertrophy = increase in myofibril size

Hyperplasia = increase in cell size
What is the stimulus needed for Overload?
1) Lift greater than or equal to 60-65% 1-RM (~20-25 reps)

2) Power training (focus on speed of movement)
What is the physiological action for muscle hypertrophy?
With training, it adds actin and myosin underneath the sarcoplasmic reticulum of a myofibril
What contraction creates the greatest stimulus for growth?
ECCENTRIC contractions
Muscle Fiber Types
1) Slow Twitch = Type I = SO
2) Fast Twitch:
- Type IIa = FOG
- Type IIb = FG
Components of a Motor Unit

Actin
Contractile protein that forms actin filament

Actin filament has 2 alpha-helical strands of G-actin molecules

G-actin has binding site for myosin heads to bind during contraction
Myosin
Contractile protein that forms myosin filament that hold myosin heads that help with muscle contraction
Tropomyosin
2 strands per actin filament

The strands cover the myosin-head binding sites on the actin filament during relaxation
Troponin
Protein that binds to actin, tropomyosin, and calcium for muscle contraction
Titin
Stabilizes alignment of myosin filaments by connecting it to both Z-ilne and M-line

Helps sarcomere return to resting length after muscle contraction

Contributes to myofibril's elasticity/extensibility (recoil for stretch-shorten cycle)
Nebulin
Protein extending length of actin filament

-Anchors actin filament to Z-line
-Regulates length of actin filament
Desmin
-Lines up z-lines
-Stabilizes adjacent sarcomeres/myofibrils
Myomesin
Forms M-line
Helps anchor myosin filaments and titin strands
Alpha-actinin
Protein within Z-line
Attaches to both actin filaments and titin strands
Dystrophin
Protein that:
- Stabilizes cytoskeleton and sarcolemma of each muscle fiber
-Helps transmit force generated by sarcomeres to tendons
Torque
Rotary effect of a force, the tendency for rotation

*Type of torque matches type of contraction
*Type of torque matches muscle's actions
Contraction
State in which a muscle exerts a force

3 Types:
1) Concentric
2) Eccentric
3) Isometric
Concentric (Shortening) Contraction
Torque produced by the muscle > external torque, so muscle able to shorten while overcoming external load (weight) against gravity
Isometric Contraction
Torque produced by muscle = External torque

No limb movement
Eccentric (Lengthening) Contraction
Torque produced by muscle < External torque

Causes slower joint movement than external torque would make the limb move

*Greatest stimulus for growth
*Can handle larger load than concentric contractions
Isokinetic
Constant angular velocity about a joint
Isotonic
