A schematic shows an actin filament composed of globular actin subunits interacting with a myosin II head extending from a thick filament, forming a cross-bridge. In the biological hierarchy, these contractile proteins are components of the sarcomere within striated muscle tissue. In muscle physiology and biochemistry, this interaction transduces chemical energy from ATP (adenosine triphosphate) hydrolysis into mechanical force, driving sliding filament motion and contraction. The image represents molecular proteins situated along the thin and thick filaments of a myofibril.
