Gene ID:
urinary bladder smooth muscle contraction
Details:
A process in which force is generated within smooth muscle tissue, resulting in a change in muscle geometry. This process occurs in the urinary bladder. Force generation involves a chemo-mechanical energy conversion step that is carried out by the actin/myosin complex activity, which generates force through ATP hydrolysis. The urinary bladder is a musculomembranous sac along the urinary tract. [GOC:mtg_muscle, MA:0001697, MESH:A05.810.890]
