muscle filament sliding Gene Set

Dataset GO Biological Process Annotations 2023
Category structural or functional annotations
Type biological process
Description The sliding of actin thin filaments and myosin thick filaments past each other in muscle contraction. This involves a process of interaction of myosin located on a thick filament with actin located on a thin filament. During this process ATP is split and forces are generated.
