Structure of a Skeletal Muscle Fiber || Sarcomere, Thick filament, Thin filament, Actin, Myosin etc

Video Summary:
Skeletal muscles are made up of fascicles which in turn are made up of muscle fibers or muscle cells. Characteristic content of muscle cells are myofibrils, T tubules... and sarcoplasmic reticulum. Myofibrils are an array of sarcomere arranged linearly. Its made up of thin filaments and thick filaments. Thin filaments are made up of actin, tropomyosin, and troponin. Thick filaments are made up of myosin 2 molecules. These filaments are the contractile machinery of the muscle. The myofibrils are surrounded by T-tubule - sarcoplasmic reticulum system. T tubules invaginate from the cell membrane and branches to make a network of t-tubules around myofibrils. Associated with it is the sarcoplasmic reticulum that stores Ca. Together these T tubules and sarcoplasmic reticulum play very important role in excitation-contraction coupling. Dispersed throughout the cytoplasm are mitochondria that supply ATP for muscle contraction.

The quality of your content is way superior than any other. This is so clean and neatly explained. Never understood the arrangement of Actin and Myosin in 3D (6 Thin filaments surround Myosin part). Now its crystal clear. Thank you❤

Till now, the best video on muscle fibres

[aayushkhobragade]

this was most informative video of this length in whole youtube and guy has good communication skills i got it all he said

[NkKhanEdits]

A mind blowing and fantastic lecture about skeletal musle ever

[fujrii__]

Is there anyone who's watching this for neet exam?

[nazarpankiv]

Thank you for the quality material from Ukraine!

[hiteshram-pu]

the best explanation using 3d made crystal clear thorough analysis. thank you very much
