Myocyte Plasma Membrane (Sarcolemma)
- Target
- Sarcolemma
- Molecular classification
- Membrane, Phospholipid Bilayer
01
Overview
The myocyte plasma membrane, or sarcolemma, is the specialized cell membrane surrounding muscle cells. It plays a crucial role in maintaining cellular integrity, transmitting electrical signals via action potentials, and facilitating excitation–contraction coupling essential for muscle contraction. It contains key structures such as T-tubules and specialized junctions for electrical and mechanical coupling between cells.
