The essential light chain is required for full force production by skeletal muscle myosin.

Myosin, a molecular motor that is responsible for muscle contraction, is composed of two heavy chains each with two light chains. The crystal structure of subfragment 1 indicates that both the regulatory light chains (RLCs) and the essential light chains (ELCs) stabilize an extended alpha-helical se...
