Binding Occurs Excitation Stops Muscle Contraction Calcium Ions

Front What occurs when excitation stops in muscle contraction
Back Calcium ions leave binding sites and are moved by active transport into sarcoplasmic reticulum
Tropomyosin move back so they block the actin-myosin binding site
no myosin head attached to actin filaments
