Titin is a gigantic protein located in the thick filament of vertebrate muscles. The putative functions of titin range from interactions with myosin and other muscle proteins to a role in muscle recoil. Analysis of its complete sequence has shown that titin is a multi-domain protein containing several copies of modules of 100 amino acids each. These are thought to belong to the fibronectin type-III and immunoglobulin superfamilies. So far, a complete structural determination has not been carried out on any of the titin modules.
