gene: tnt-2 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable tropomyosin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in muscle contraction and sarcomere organization. Predicted to be part of troponin complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including distal arthrogryposis type 2B2; intrinsic cardiomyopathy (multiple); and nemaline myopathy (multiple). Is an ortholog of human TNNT1 (troponin T1, slow skeletal type); TNNT2 (troponin T2, cardiac type); and TNNT3 (troponin T3, fast skeletal type).
