Heavy and light roles: myosin in the morphogenesis of the heart (2013)
Journal Article
England, J., & Loughna, S. (2013). Heavy and light roles: myosin in the morphogenesis of the heart. Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 70(7), https://doi.org/10.1007/s00018-012-1131-1

Myosin is an essential component of cardiac muscle, from the onset of cardiogenesis through to the adult heart. Although traditionally known for its role in energy transduction and force development, recent studies suggest that both myosin heavy-cha...

Knockdown of embryonic myosin heavy chain reveals an essential role in the morphology and function of the developing heart (2011)
Journal Article
Rutland, C. S., Polo-Parada, L., Ehler, E., Alibhai, A., Thorpe, A., Suren, S., …Loughna, S. (2011). Knockdown of embryonic myosin heavy chain reveals an essential role in the morphology and function of the developing heart. Development, 138(18), https://doi.org/10.1242/dev.059063

The expression and function of embryonic myosin heavy chain (eMYH) has not been investigated within the early developing heart. This is despite the knowledge that other structural proteins, such as alpha and beta myosin heavy chains and cardiac alpha...
