The structure of muscle thick filaments has been elucidated by a combination of electron microscopic and X-ray diffraction methods. Although X-ray diffraction provides much detailed information about the structure of the filaments, a long-standing problem is the number of myosin molecules per repeating unit along the filament. Direct measurements using STEM have recently established that in vertebrate skeletal muscle and insect flight muscle there are respectively 3 and 4 myosin molecules in each 145Å. period along the filament.
