Human Gene Set: GOBP_SKELETAL_MUSCLE_CONTRACTION

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOBP_SKELETAL_MUSCLE_CONTRACTION

Standard name GOBP_SKELETAL_MUSCLE_CONTRACTION
Systematic name M11647
Brief description A process in which force is generated within 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. In the skeletal muscle, the muscle contraction takes advantage of an ordered sarcomeric structure and in most cases it is under voluntary control. [GOC:mtg_cardio, GOC:mtg_muscle]
