Mouse Gene Set: GOBP_RELAXATION_OF_MUSCLE

For the Human gene set with the same name, see GOBP_RELAXATION_OF_MUSCLE

Standard name GOBP_RELAXATION_OF_MUSCLE
Systematic name MM10042
Brief description A process in which the extent of muscle contraction is reduced. Muscle relaxation can involve a number of processes including the removal of calcium from the cytoplasm to the sarcoplasmic reticulum lumen through the action of Ca2+ ATPases. In some muscles, calcium-independent pathways also play a role in muscle relaxation by decreasing the phosphorylation state of myosin light chain. [GOC:BHF, GOC:rl, PMID:19996365]
