A recent study which used advanced biochemical techniques including gel filtration revealed that following myocardial infarction (MI), much of detectable TnT is part of a ternary complex of TnI, TnT, and TnC, which progressively gets degraded to lower molecular weight species, and that a complex of TnI and TnC also exists alongside free TnT fragments [21]. Here, TNNT1 is linked to myocardial infarction.
