Question

When myosin moves along the actin, it goes through cycles of binding and releasing (duty cycle). How does myosin keep from losing its place on the actin when it releases

Answer 1

The correct answer is - The myosin is arranged in dimers so that when one releases, the other is bound.

Step-by-step explanation:

Myosin moves along the actin in the cycle of binding and releasing which is known as the duty cycle of myosin movement. Myosin is found in the arrangement of the dimer.

It remains in its position with the help of this dimer arrangement as one released in the duty cycle while the other bound and then the other bound and it releases.
