Application

Troponin T from human heart has been used in competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the quantification of troponin T (TnT).

Biochem/physiol Actions

The tropomyosin-binding subunit of troponin. The cardiac troponin T gene (TNNT2) helps to connect the troponin complex to α-tropomyosin, thereby participates in the modulation of contractile function.

General description

The cardiac troponin T gene (TNNT2) is located on human chromosome 1 and spans around 17kb. It codes for a 288-amino-acid peptide of 36−39kDa.
