Planteome: Term Details for "tonic skeletal muscle contraction" (GO:0014720)

Accession: GO:0014720
Name: tonic skeletal muscle contraction
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: None
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: A process in which force is generated within tonic skeletal muscle tissue, resulting in a change in muscle geometry. Force generation involves a chemo-mechanical energy conversion step that is carried out by the actin/myosin complex activity, which generates force through ATP hydrolysis. The tonic skeletal muscle is characterized by long lasting contractile responses and high resistance to fatigue. Source: GOC:mtg_muscle
