Tropomyosin is an actin-binding protein. It acts to regulate how myosin crossbridges attach to actin filaments. Tropomyosin work with with the troponin complex and together associate with actin in muscle fibers to regulate muscle contraction by regulating the binding of myosin.

Athérosclérose - biocanvas: Heart disease is the leading cause of deaths worldwide, and atherosclerosis (the thickening of artery walls) These invading muscles cells differ from normal cells because of the unique polygonal geometry of their cell skeleton filament actin (in red). This “net” of actin helps to protect the invading cells while they move about. Image by Rosalind Silverman and Michelle Bendeck, University of Toronto.
Part of a muscle sarcomere is shown here, with actin filaments in blue and myosin filaments in red. The long yellow proteins are the huge protein titin.
