Ca2+-phospholipid dependent phosphorylation of smooth muscle myosin   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
Isolated myosin light chain from chicken gizzard has been shown to serve as a substrate for Ca2+-activated phospholipid-dependent protein kinase. Autoradiography showed that Ca2+-activated phospholipid-dependent protein kinase phosphorylated mainly the 20,000-dalton light chain of chicken gizzard myosin. Exogenously added calmodulin had no effect on myosin light chain phosphorylation catalyzed by the enzyme. The 20,000-dalton myosin light chain, both in the isolated form and in the whole myosin form, served as the substrate for this enzyme. In contrast to the isolated myosin light chain, the light chain of whole myosin was phosphorylated to a lesser extent by the Ca2+-activated phospholipid dependent kinase. Our results suggest the involvement of phospholipid in regulating Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation of the 20,000-dalton light chain of smooth muscle myosin.  相似文献

Brain type II Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase was found to phoshorylate smooth muscle myosin, incorporating maximally 2 mol of phosphoryl per mol of myosin, exclusively on the 20,000 dalton light chain subunit. After maximal phosphorylation of myosin or the isolated 20,000 dalton light chain subunit by myosin light chain kinase, the addition of type II Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase led to no further incorporation indicating the two kinases phosphorylated a common site. This conclusion was supported by two dimensional mapping of tryptic digests of myosin phosphorylated by the two kinases. By phosphoamino acid analysis the phosphorylated residue was identified as a serine. The phosphorylation by type II Ca 2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase of myosin resulted in enhancement of its actin-activated Mg2+-ATPase activity. Taken together, these data strongly support the conclusion that type II Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase phosphorylates the same amino acid residue on the 20,000 dalton light chain subunit of smooth muscle myosin as is phosphorylated by myosin light chain kinase and suggest an alternative mechanism for the regulation of actin-myosin interaction.Abbreviations SDS-PAGE Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis - EGTA Ethylene Glycol Bis (-amino-ethyl ether)-N,N,N,N-Tetraacetic Acid - DTT Dithiothreitol - LC20 Gizzard Smooth Muscle Phosphorylatable 20 kDa Myosin Light Chain - LC17 Gizzard Smooth Muscle, 17 kDa Myosin Light Chain - H Chain Gizzard Smooth Muscle 200 kDa Myosin Heavy Chain - TPCK L-1-Tosylamido-2-Phenylethyl Chloromethyl Ketone - MOPS 3-(N-morpholino) Propanesulfonic Acid  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that the phosphorylation of myosin is solely responsible for the activation of the Mg2+-ATPase activity of gizzard actomyosin. Using a washed natural actomyosin and a reconstituted actomyosin it was shown that phosphorylation alone caused only a slight activation of ATPase activity. Full activity was obtained only when proteins in addition to the myosin light chain kinase were added. It is evident from these results that: 1) there is no simple relationship between the extent of myosin phosphorylation and the specific Mg2+-ATPase activity of actomyosin and 2) in order for full activation by actin of the Mg2+-ATPase activity of phosphorylated myosin additional factors are required.  相似文献

A high salt extract of bovine brain was found to contain a protein kinase which catalyzed the phosphorylation of heavy chain of brain myosin. The protein kinase, designated as myosin heavy chain kinase, has been purified by column chromatography on phosphocellulose, Sephacryl S-300, and hydroxylapatite. During the purification, the myosin heavy chain kinase was found to co-purify with casein kinase II. Furthermore, upon polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the purified enzyme under non-denaturing conditions, both the heavy chain kinase and casein kinase activities were found to comigrate. The purified enzyme phosphorylated casein, phosvitin, troponin T, and isolated 20,000-dalton light chain of gizzard myosin, but not histone or protamine. The kinase did not require Ca2+-calmodulin, or cyclic AMP for activity. Heparin, which is known to be a specific inhibitor of casein kinase II, inhibited the heavy chain kinase activity. These results indicate that the myosin heavy chain kinase is identical to casein kinase II. The myosin heavy chain kinase catalyzed the phosphorylation of the heavy chains in intact brain myosin. The heavy chains in intact gizzard myosin were also phosphorylated, but to a much lesser extent. The heavy chains of skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle myosins were not phosphorylated to an appreciable extent. Although the light chains isolated from brain and gizzard myosins were efficiently phosphorylated by the same enzyme, the rates of phosphorylation of these light chains in the intact myosins were very small. From these results it is suggested that casein kinase II plays a role as a myosin heavy chain kinase for brain myosin rather than as a myosin light chain kinase.  相似文献

The ATPase activity of myosin from chicken gizzard measured in the presence of either Mg2+ or Ca2+ is increased in the absence of dithiothreitol or upon reaction with Cu2+, o-iodosobenzoate, or N-ethylmaleimide. Iodosobenzoate or Cu2+ produce no change in K+(EDTA)-ATPase while N-ethylmaleimide produces a decrease. These treatments also make the actin-activated ATPase insensitive to Ca2+ when assayed in the presence of tropomyosin and a partially purified myosin light chain kinase. Phosphorylation of N-ethylmaleimide modified myosin remains dependent on Ca2+ and therefore appears not to be required for activation by actin of the ATPase activity of modified myosin.  相似文献

Treatment of phosphorylated chicken gizzard myosin which had incorporated 1.5 mol of phosphate per 4.7 x 10(5) g of protein with 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene resulted in the modification of the heavy and light chains when 5.8 mol of the reagent were bound to myosin. Concurrently, the K+-ATPase activity was inhibited and the modified myosin possessed actin activated-ATPase activity. Thiolysis of nearly 2 mol of the dinitrophenyl group mainly from the heavy chains (and some light chains) of the modified myosin with 2-mercaptoethanol restored the K+-ATPase activity. Digestion of phosphorylated gizzard myosin with chymotrypsin or papain occurred to a lesser extent than a control myosin. Chymotryptic fragments of phosphorylated and dinitrophenylated myosin were formed at a faster rate than those of dinitrophenylated myosin alone suggesting that phosphorylation of the light chain of Mr 20,000 altered the susceptibility of the heavy chains of myosin to proteolysis. Phosphorylation of dinitrophenylated gizzard myosin which had incorporated 5.5 mol of 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene per 4.7 x 10(5) g of protein was the same as that of a control myosin; this was also the case for the thiolyzed dinitrophenylated myosin. In the absence of calcium, phosphorylation of control and dinitrophenylated myosins decreased by 73% suggesting that the phosphorylation reaction was calcium dependent. Phosphorylation and dinitrophenylation induced conformational changes in the light chains of gizzard myosin that may be involved in maintaining the structure of the heavy chain region.  相似文献

Myorod is expressed exclusively in molluscan catch muscle and localizes on the surface of thick filaments together with twitchin and myosin. Myorod is an alternatively spliced product of the myosin heavy-chain gene that contains the C-terminal rod part of myosin and a unique N-terminal domain. The unique domain is a target for phosphorylation by gizzard smooth myosin light chain kinase (smMLCK) and, perhaps, molluscan twitchin, which contains a MLCK-like domain. To elucidate the role of myorod and its phosphorylation in the catch muscle, the effect of chromatographically purified myorod on the actin-activated Mg2+-ATPase activity of myosin was studied. We found that phosphorylation at the N-terminus of myorod potentiated the actin-activated Mg2+-ATPase activity of mussel and rabbit myosins. This potentiation occurred only if myorod was phosphorylated and introduced into the ATPase assay as a co-filament with myosin. We suggest that myorod could be related to the catch state, a function specific to molluscan muscle.  相似文献

1. The myosin molecule from Ehrlich ascites tumour cells consists of heavy chains of about 200 kDa and three species of light chains of 20, 19 and 15 kDa. 2. The heavy chain can be phosphorylated in vitro either by endogenous Ca2+-independent kinase or by casein kinase II. 3. The 20 and 19 kDa light chains can be phosphorylated either by an endogenous kinase or by myosin light chain kinase from chicken gizzard. 4. The Ca2+-ATPase activity of the purified myosin was 0.3 mumol/min mg protein. The Mg2+-ATPase activity was activated 14-fold by actin upon the light chain phosphorylation.  相似文献

Heavy meromyosin subfragment-1 from human platelets and chicken gizzard exhibited an identical chromatographic pattern on agarose-ATP columns both in the absence and in the presence of Ca2+ and Mg2+. In the presence of Ca2+, the behavior differed from that of rabbit white skeletal muscle subfragment-1. The reaction of lysyl residues of platelet myosin with 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonate did not affect the K+- or Mg2+-stimulated ATPase activity. A similar behavior was exhibited by chicken gizzard myosin whereas trinitrophenylation of the more active lysyl residues in skeletal muscle myosin caused a marked increase in Mg2+-stimulated and a decrease in K+-stimulated ATPase activity. These features may point to a similar location of the essential lysyl residue in platelet and smooth muscle myosin, which is different from that of skeletal muscle. Alkylation of thiol groups by N-ethyl maleimide in the absence of added nucleotides resulted in a loss of K+-ATPase and in an increase in the Ca2+-ATPase in all three myosins, the increase for the skeletal myosin being much greater than for the platelet and chicken gizzard preparations. Alkylation of myosin in the presence of MgADP led to a decrease in K+-ATPase of all preparations whereas the Ca2+-ATPase as a function of time exhibited a maximum for the platelet and skeletal muscle proteins. These features may point to a certain similarity with respect to the active site of platelet and smooth muscle myosins and a difference between these and skeletal muscle myosin.  相似文献

Protease activated kinase I from rabbit reticulocytes has been shown to phosphorylate the P-light chain of myosin light chains isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle. The enzyme is not activated by Ca2+ and calmodulin or phospholipids. Protease activated kinase I is not inhibited by trifluoperazine at concentrations up to 200 μM or by the antibody to the Ca2+, calmodulin-dependent myosin light chain kinase from rabbit skeletal muscle. Two-dimensional peptide mapping of chymotryptic digests of myosin P-light chain show the site phosphorylated by the protease activated kinase is different from that phosphorylated by the Ca2+, calmodulin-dependent myosin light chain kinase.  相似文献

Vascular relaxing agents such as N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-l-naphthalenesulfonamide (W-7), N2-dansyl-L-arginine-4-t-butyl-piperidine amide (No. 233), prenylamine and chlorpromazine that interact with Ca2+-regulated modulator protein of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase inhibited Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation of chicken gizzard myosin light chain. Inhibition by the agents of myosin light chain phosphorylation resulted in inhibition of calcium activated, magnesium dependent adenosine triphosphatase of the gizzard actomyosin. The specificity of these agents for inhibition of light chain phosphorylation was shown by negative effect of these agents on ATPase activity of gizzard actomyosin in the phosphorylated form. Results suggest that the agents provide useful tool for the study on the Ca2+-sensitive regulatory mechanism of modulator-related enzyme systems.  相似文献

Perfused rat hearts were treated with isoprenaline (10?6M) or ouabain (5.5 × 10?6M). The phosphate contents of troponin-I and myosin P light chains were established by radiolabelling with 32P; in the case of the light chains, direct chemical analysis of total and of specifically alkali-labile phosphate was also performed. Addition of isoprenaline caused phosphorylation of both troponin-I and myosin P light chains, reaching a maximum increment, after several minutes, of 1 mol/mol and 0.30 mol/mol, respectively. The Mg2+-ATPase activities, at saturating Ca2+ concentrations, of natural actomyosin isolated from treated hearts were significantly depressed, and an inverse correlation was established between the phosphate content of troponin-I and the Vmax[Ca2+] of this ATPase activity. The Ca2+ sensitivity of the Ca2+Mg2+-ATPase was also decreased. These changes were all reversed by an incubation permitting dephosphorylation of proteins by endogenous phosphatases.Treatment of hearts with ouabain caused no increment in troponin-I phosphorylation, but increased the P light chain phosphate content to a maximum of 0.30 mol/mol after some minutes. A positive correlation was evident between phosphate content of the light chains (in all experiments) and the maximum myosin Ca2+-ATPase activities. In addition, the Vmax[ATP] of the Ca2+Mg2+-ATPase of natural actomyosin was increased when light chain phosphorylation had occurred in the absence of troponin-I phosphorylation. P-light chain phosphorylation did not affect the Ca2+ sensitivity of Ca2+Mg2+-ATPase activity.We suggest that the effects of phosphorylation of troponin-I are to diminish thin filament sensitivity to Ca2+, and to decrease the efficiency of the transduction process along neighbouring actin monomers, such that the number of actin-myosin crossbridge interactions is decreased even in the presence of Ca2+ excess. Phosphorylation of P light chains of myosin has an activating effect on myosin Ca2+-ATPase activity, as well as on the rate of cross-bridge formation.  相似文献

Myosin was purified from ovine uterine smooth muscle. The 20,000 dalton myosin light chain was phosphorylated to varying degrees by an endogenous Ca2+ dependent kinase. The kinase and endogenous phosphatases were then removed via column chromatography. In the absence of actin neither the size of the initial phosphate burst nor the steady state Mg2+-dependent ATPase activity were affected by phosphorylation. However, phosphorylation was required for actin to increase the Mg2+-dependent ATPase activity and for the myosin to superprecipitate with actin. Ca2+ did not affect the Mg2+-dependent ATPase activity in the presence or absence of action or the rate or extent of superprecipitation with actin once phosphorylation was obtained. These data indicate that: 1) phosphorylation of the 20,000 dalton myosin light chain controls the uterine smooth muscle actomyosin interaction, 2) in the absence of actin, phosphorylation does not affect either the ATPase of myosin or the size of the initial burst of phosphate and, 3) Ca2+ is important in controlling the light chain kinase but not the actomyosin interaction.  相似文献

Actin and Myosin in pea tendrils   总被引:12,自引:2,他引:10  
Ma YZ  Yen LF 《Plant physiology》1989,89(2):586-589
We demonstrate here the presence of actin and myosin in pea (Pisum sativum L.) tendrils. The molecular weight of tendril actin is 43,000, the same as rabbit skeletal muscle actin. The native molecular weight of tendril myosin is about 440,000. Tendril myosin is composed of two heavy chains of molecular weight approximately 165,000 and four (two pairs) light chains of 17,000 and 15,000. At high ionic strength, the ATPase activity of pea tendril myosin is activated by K+-EDTA and Ca2+ and is inhibited by Mg2+. At low ionic strength, the Mg2+-ATPase activity of pea tendril myosin is activated by rabbit skeletal muscle F-actin. Superprecipitation occurred after incubation at room temperature when ATP was added to the crude actomyosin extract. It is suggested that the interaction of actin and myosin may play a role in the coiling movement of pea tendril.  相似文献

A method is described for the preparation of partially and fully phosphorylated chicken gizzard myosin. When fully phosphorylated it possessed an actin-activated Mg2+-ATPase of similar specific activity to that of mammalian skeletal muscle myosin. The Mg2+-ATPase activity of these preparations was related in a non-linear fashion to increasing phosphorylation of the P light chain. When P light chain phosphorylation occurred during enzymic assay the Mg2+-ATPase activity remained constant. Fully phosphorylated preparations of gizzard myosin possessed an actin-activated Mg2+-ATPase that was not Ca2+-sensitive, whereas the Mg2+-ATPase of partially phosphorylated myosin preparations was Ca2+-sensitive.  相似文献

Dextran sulfate (DS) with average molecular weight (AMW) of 20,000 and sulfur content of 18%, which has a high lipemia clearing activity, enhanced Ca2+ binding to the plasma membrane of rat liver, and the DS itself bound the membrane, whereas there was little binding of DS and Ca2+. Various DSs slightly activated Na+-K+-ATPase, but not Mg2+-ATPase activity of the membrane. These results suggest that DSs, especially with high AMW of 20,000, bind the plasma membrane, resulting in enhancements of the Ca2+ binding to there and Ca2+-ATPase activity.  相似文献

Myosin light chain kinase was partially purified from bovine adrenal medulla. A polypeptide of Mr 165,000 dalton was identified as kinase by using anti-gizzard myosin light chain kinase IgG on immunoreplica. Phosphorylation of medullary myosin was Ca2+- and calmodulin-dependent. The phosphorylated myosin was showed to enhance the actin-activated Mg2+-ATPase activity. In contrast, the myosin ATPase activity was dramatically decreased by dephosphorylation of myosin.  相似文献

We have purified myosin from isolated rabbit liver cells that had been previously shown to be well separated from blood vessels and connective tissue (Okamoto, Y. et al. (1983) J. Biochem. 94, 645-653). It comprises a 200-kDa heavy chain and light chains of 24-kDa, 22-kDa, and 17-kDa. In the light chain composition and in the mobility in PPi-PAGE, liver cell myosin differs from the myosin in liver blood vessels. The light chains of liver cell myosin were phosphorylated by myosin light-chain kinase from chicken gizzard and the Mg2+-ATPase activity of phosphorylated myosin was activated 10-fold by F-actin.  相似文献

The effect of calcium and a soluble cytoplasmic activator on (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase of density-separated human red cells was investigated. At all calcium concentrations tested, dense (old) lysed cells and their isolated membranes displayed lower activities as compared to the light (young) cells and their membranes. Isolated membranes from all density red cell fractions showed two distinct (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activities; one at low calcium and another at moderate calcium concentrations. At high calcium concentration, (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity of isolated membranes was low in all cell fractions. In contrast to the isolated membranes, lysed cells from all density fractions had a maximum (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity only at a low concentration of calcium, while moderate and high calcium concentrations produced low activity. Upon isolation of membranes, a substantial loss of (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity took place from all density cell fractions. Upon membrane isolation, the relative loss of (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity at low Ca2+ concentration was greater in older cells. The extent of stimulation of (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase by the activator at low calcium concentration was 3–4-fold greater in older cell membranes than in the young ones.These data suggest that the lower (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity in old cells could be accounted for by a selective loss of (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity at low Ca2+ concentration presumably due to reduced affinity of old cell membranes to activator protein.  相似文献

We have shown previously that myorod, a molluscan thick filament protein of unknown function, is phosphorylated by vertebrate smooth myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) in N-terminal unique region. The aim of the present study was to clarify whether such phosphorylation may occur in molluscan muscles. We detected three kinases endogenous to molluscan catch muscle, namely, to the complex of surface thick filament proteins that consists of twitchin, myosin, and myorod. The first kinase was a protein kinase A because it was inhibited by a specific inhibitor; the second one was associated with twitchin and phosphorylated myorod at its N-terminal unique region independently of Ca2+; and the third kinase was bound to myosin and phosphorylated myorod as well as myosin in the C-terminal part of both proteins. The myosin-associated kinase was inhibited by micromolar concentration of calcium ions. This enzyme could be separated from myosin by chromatography, whereas the kinase associated with twitchin could not be separated from twitchin. Since twitchin has a MLCK-like domain, it is possible that this domain was responsible for myorod phosphorylation. Phosphorylation of myorod within the twitchin–myosin–myorod complex increased the actin-activated Mg2+-ATPase activity of myosin. Taken together, these results indicate that phosphorylation of myorod by kinases associated with key proteins of catch contraction may contribute to the functional activity of myorod in molluscan smooth muscle.  相似文献
