Load-dependent sliding direction change of a myosin head on an actin molecule and its energetic aspects: Energy borrowing model of a cross-bridge cycle

A model of muscle contraction is proposed, assuming loose coupling between power strokes and ATP hydrolysis of a myosin head. The energy borrowing mechanism is introduced in a cross-bridge cycle that borrows energy from the environment to cover the necessary energy for enthalpy production during sli...
