Actin Myosin Muscle Model, artwork C014 / 2661
Computer artwork of the molecular actin myosin muscle structure. The complex ultrastructure of cells, their shape and internal structure and the many motions of cells are supported by filaments of the protein actin (blue tructure). It comprises 20% of the protein in muscle cells. Myosin protein (orange structure) is used to transfer energy in cells. Myosin is a molecule-sized muscle that uses chemical energy to perform motions

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of actin myosin muscle, beautifully captured through computer artwork. The image highlights the complex ultrastructure within cells, emphasizing their shape and internal composition. Central to this cellular architecture are filaments of actin protein, depicted in a striking blue hue. Actin constitutes a significant portion (20%) of muscle cell proteins and plays a crucial role in supporting various motions executed by cells. Complementing the actin filaments is the vibrant orange structure representing myosin protein. Myosin serves as an energy transporter within cells, utilizing chemical energy to facilitate cellular movements. This molecule-sized muscle exhibits remarkable efficiency in performing these motions. The photograph not only provides insight into the structural intricacies of muscles but also underscores their vital function in biology. It offers viewers a glimpse into the fascinating world of anatomy and cell biology, shedding light on how muscles generate force and enable motion. Captured by PASIEKA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, this visually stunning artwork invites contemplation on the fundamental components that drive our physical capabilities – from individual molecules to entire systems working harmoniously together.
