muscle
• in isometric measurements of isolated EDL muscle, more force is produced at any given voltage, and has higher force is at supramaximal voltage compared to wild-type; peak tetanic force is 384 mN/sq. mm compared to 297 mN/sq. mm in wild-type
• rate of force development in tetanic contraction is significantly increased compared to wild-type
• EDL twitch force is 34% higher than that produced by wild-type
• constant for fatigue is similar to wild-type
