Summary Introduction

To differentiate: In the activity of troponin and tropomyosin in the contraction of muscles with the competitive inhibitor activity in the enzyme action.

Concept introduction: The contraction of muscle cells rely on the interactions between the thick and the thin filaments. The thick filaments are called as the myosin molecules, whereas the thin filaments are called as the actin filaments. The contraction of muscles is the result of filaments motion that is powered by a chemical energy.

The troponin complex and the tropomyosin are the regulatory proteins involved in the contraction of muscles. Competitive inhibition is a type of enzyme inhibition, where an inhibitor binds to the target molecule and prevents the binding of substrate to the enzyme.
