Tropomyosin gene structure in vertebrates. The arrangement of exons expressed in the Tm isoforms used in this study from TPM1, TPM3, and TPM4 genes is shown. The names of the Tms in parentheses correspond to the systematic nomenclature proposed for mammalian tropomyosins by Geeves, Hitchcock-DeGregori, and Gunning (manuscript submitted for publication). The full forms of the names in the parentheses are as follows: Tpm1.1st, Tpm1.1st(a.b.b.a); Tpm1.6cy, Tpm1.6cy(a.b.b.d); Tpm1.8cy, Tpm1.8cy(b.-.b.d.); Tpm3.1cy, Tpm3.1cy(b.-.a.d); Tpm4.2cy, Tpm4.2cy(b.-.b.d).
