Tissue-specific alternative splicing of ascidian troponin I isoforms. Redesign of a protein isoform-generating mechanism during chordate evolution

In vertebrates, troponin I (TnI) exists as shorter and longer isoforms encoded by distinct genes expressed in skeletal and cardiac muscle, respectively. We report that the protochordate ascidian Ciona intestinalis expresses a homologous set of shorter and longer TnI isoforms in body wall muscle and...
