Abstract
1. 1. A troponin-like protein was isolated from body wall muscle of Ascaris and separated into three components, the mol. wts of which were approx. 58,000, 36,000 and 20,000 respectively. 2. 2. The three components were designated as troponin- T (TNT), troponin- I (TNI) and troponin- C (TNC) in order of mol. wt, since each component had properties similar to the respective components of vertebrate skeletal-muscle troponin. 3. 3. Ascaris troponin were localized on actin filaments with a 44 nm repeat, an approximately 4 nm longer repeat than vertebrate troponin.
