Average data are provided for individual experiments. Experiments were carried out with three separate protein preparations of troponin that was exchanged into four separate myofibril preparations. Low Ca2+ is pCa 9 and High Ca2+ is pCa 4.5. The unit for Average (fluorescence) intensity of IANBD-cTnCT53C and SD is millivolts. n = number of wells of myofibrils into which low or high Ca2+ is individually added. Change + Ca2+ is the percentage change in intensity between low and high Ca2+ in each experiment.  C.V. is the coefficient of variance. Statistical tests of Z′ factor and t test are used to evaluate the change in intensity between low and high Ca2+. The average Z′ and percentage Change + Ca2+ for the four experiments is also given.
