protoporphyrin ix and Muscle Contraction

protoporphyrin ix has been researched along with Muscle Contraction in 2 studies

protoporphyrin IX: RN given refers to parent cpd; structure in Merck Index, 9th ed, #7685
protoporphyrin : A cyclic tetrapyrrole that consists of porphyrin bearing four methyl substituents at positions 3, 8, 13 and 17, two vinyl substituents at positions 7 and 12 and two 2-carboxyethyl substituents at positions 2 and 18. The parent of the class of protoporphyrins.

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.
