azobenzene and Muscle Contraction

azobenzene has been researched along with Muscle Contraction in 1 studies

azobenzene: photosensor molecule known to undergo reversible isomerization from trans to cis on illumination with photons of appropriate wavelength; RN given refers to cpd without isomeric designation; structure
(E)-azobenzene : The (E)-isomer of azobenzene.
(Z)-azobenzene : The (Z)-isomer of azobenzene.
azobenzene : A molecule whose structure comprises two phenyl rings linked by a N=N double bond; the parent compound of the azobenzene class of compounds.

Muscle Contraction: A process leading to shortening and/or development of tension in muscle tissue. Muscle contraction occurs by a sliding filament mechanism whereby actin filaments slide inward among the myosin filaments.
