Table 1. Summary of pCa-force relationship curves before and after PKA incubation in fibers reconstituted with cardiac TnI.TnC complex at pH 7.0.

The pCa50, nH and % Ca2+ unregulated force values are the average of many independent fiber experiments, and the errors are reported as S.E. values. The Ca2+ unregulated force was calculated using the following equation: (FpCa8/FpCa4)×100, where the FpCa8 and FpCa4 are the force at pCa 8.0 and pCa 4.0 solutions, respectively.
