Myosin isoenzymes, highly enriched in either alkali 1 or alkali 2 light chains have been prepared by light chain exchange in 4.7 M ammonium chloride, under conditions where there is minimal loss of ATPase activity. While the actin-activated ATPase measurements were complicated by a biphasic dependence on actin concentration, the two myosin isoenzymes behaved in a similar manner; at a variety of ionic strength conditions their maximum rates of ATP hydrolysis were nearly identical. Furthermore, under conditions where their Km values could be reliably determined, their apparent affinities for actin in the presence of ATP did not differ greatly. These results suggest that the presence of a particular alkali light chain does not influence the maximum rate of ATP turnover by actomyosin under ionic strength conditions approximating physiological. 相似文献

Thiol-disulfide exchange reactions between myosin and 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB) lead to the formation of 5-thio-2-nitrobenzoic acid (TNB)-mixed disulfides as well as to protein disulfide bonds. After incubation with DTNB, myosin was treated with an excess of N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) before electrophoretic analysis of the protein subunits in sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) without prior reduction by dithiothreitol (DTT). Without NEM treatment, thiol-disulfide rearrangement reactions occurred in the presence of SDS between the residual free thiols and DTNB. In the absence of divalent metal ions at 25 degrees C, DTNB was shown to induce an intrachain disulfide bond between Cys-127 and Cys-156 of the RLC. This intrachain cross-link restricts partially the unfolding of the RLC in SDS and can be followed as a faster migrating species, RLC'. Densitometric evaluation of the electrophoretic gel patterns indicated that the stoichiometric relation of the light chains (including RLC and RLC') remained unchanged. The two cysteine residues of the fast migrating RLC' were no more available for reaction with [14C]NEM, but upon reduction with DTT, the electrophoretic mobility of the RLC' reverted to that of unmodified RLC and of the RLC modified with two TNB groups. Ca2+ or Mg2+ was able to prevent this disulfide formation in the RLC of myosin by 50% at a free ion concentration of 1.1 X 10(-8) and 4.0 X 10(-7) M, respectively, at 25 degrees C and pH 7.6. Intrachain disulfide formation of RLC never occurred in myosin at 0 degree C.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Heat-treatment of natural actomyosin at low ionic strength in the absence of substrate results in substantial augmentation of Mg-ATPase, and minor increase of Ca-ATPase and decrease of EDTA-ATPase. Changes in Steady-state activity persist despite decrease of temperature. The effect appears to involve a thermally induced transition to a stable potentiated state for natural actomyosin. The phenomenon requires interaction between actin and myosin during heat-treatment; however, the presence of troponin and tropomyosin is needed for potentiation to be fully manifest. Thermal potentiation significantly modifies the Arrhenius behavior of actomyosin ATPase, and the augmented catalytic rate reflects a large increase of activation entropy. 相似文献

1. Purealin, a novel bioactive principle of a sea sponge Psammaplysilla purea, activated the superprecipitation of myosin B (natural actomyosin) from rabbit skeletal muscle. The maximum change in the turbidity increased with increasing purealin concentrations and was three times the control value in the presence of 50 microM purealin. 2. The ATPase activity of myosin B was also elevated to 160% of the control value by 10 microM purealin. On the other hand, purealin inhibited the myosin ATPase in the presence of 10 mM CaCl2 and 0.5 M KCl (Ca2+-ATPase), and the concentration for the half inhibition was 4 microM. 3. On the other hand, purealin activated the myosin ATPase in the presence of 5 mM EDTA and 0.5 M KCl (EDTA-ATPase). The maximum activation by 10 microM purealin was 160% of the control value. 4. Furthermore, similar results concerning the modification of ATPase activities by purealin were obtained in myosin subfragment-1 instead of myosin. 5. These results suggest that purealin activates the superprecipitation of myosin B by affecting the myosin heads directly. It is also an interesting observation that there is a correlation between the activities of the myosin EDTA-ATPase and actomyosin ATPase of myosin B. 相似文献

Amphidinolide B caused a concentration-dependent increase in the contractile force of skeletal muscle skinned fibers. The concentration-contractile response curve for external Ca2+ was shifted to the left in a parallel manner, suggesting an increase in Ca2+ sensitivity. Amphidinolide B stimulated the superprecipitation of natural actomyosin. The maximum response of natural actomyosin to Ca2+ in superprecipitation was enhanced by it. Amphidinolide B increased the ATPase activity of myofibrils and natural actomyosin. The ATPase activity of actomyosin reconstituted from actin and myosin was enhanced in a concentration-dependent manner in the presence or absence of troponin-tropomyosin complex. Ca2+-, K+-EDTA- or Mg2+-ATPase of myosin was not affected by amphidinolide B. These results suggest that amphidinolide B enhances an interaction of actin and myosin directly and increases Ca2+ sensitivity of the contractile apparatus mediated through troponin-tropomyosin system, resulting in an increase in the ATPase activity of actomyosin and thus enhances the contractile response of myofilament. 相似文献

The role of phosphorylation of the myosin regulatory light chains (RLC) is well established in smooth muscle contraction, but in striated (skeletal and cardiac) muscle its role is still controversial. We have studied the effects of RLC phosphorylation in reconstituted myosin and in skinned skeletal muscle fibers where Ca2+ sensitivity and the kinetics of steady-state force development were measured. Skeletal muscle myosin reconstituted with phosphorylated RLC produced a much higher Ca2+ sensitivity of thin filament-regulated ATPase activity than nonphosphorylated RLC (change in -log of the Ca2+ concentration producing half-maximal activation = approximately 0.25). The same was true for the Ca2+ sensitivity of force in skinned skeletal muscle fibers, which increased on reconstitution of the fibers with the phosphorylated RLC. In addition, we have shown that the level of endogenous RLC phosphorylation is a crucial determinant of the Ca2+ sensitivity of force development. Studies of the effects of RLC phosphorylation on the kinetics of force activation with the caged Ca2+, DM-nitrophen, showed a slight increase in the rates of force development with low statistical significance. However, an increase from 69 to 84% of the initial steady-state force was observed when nonphosphorylated RLC-reconstituted fibers were subsequently phosphorylated with exogenous myosin light chain kinase. In conclusion, our results suggest that, although Ca2+ binding to the troponin-tropomyosin complex is the primary regulator of skeletal muscle contraction, RLC play an important modulatory role in this process. 相似文献

The phosphorylated L2 light chain of skeletal myosin is a modifier of the actomyosin ATPase 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Incubation of rabbit skeletal myosin with an extract of light chain kinase plus ATP phosphorylated the L2 light chain and modified the steady state kinetics of the actomyosin ATPase. With regulated actin, the ATPase activity of phosphorylated myosin (P-myosin) was 35 to 181% greater than that of unphosphorylated myosin when assayed with 0.05 to 5 micro M Ca2+. Phosphorylation had no effect on the Ca2+ concentration required for half-maximal activity, but it did increase the ATPase activity at low Ca2+. With pure actin, the percentage of increase in the actomyosin ATPase activity correlated with the percentage of phosphorylation of myosin. Steady state kinetic analyses of the actomyosin system indicated that 50 to 82% phosphorylation of myosin decreased significantly the Kapp of actin for myosin with no significant effect on the Vmax. Phosphorylaton of heavy meromyosin similarly modified the steady state kinetics of the acto-heavy meromyosin system. Both the K+/EDTA- and Mg-ATPase activities of P-myosin and phosphorylated heavy meromyosin were within normal limits indicating that phosphorylaiion had not altered significantly the hydrolytic site. Phosphatase treatment of P-myosin decreased both the level of phosphorylation of L2 and the actomyosin ATPase activity to control levels for unphosphorylated myosin. It is concluded levels for unphosphorylated myosin. It is concluded from these results that the ability of P-myosin to modify the steady state kinetics of the actomyosin ATPase was: 1) specific for phosphorylation; 2) independent of the thin filament regulatory proteins. 相似文献

The possible role of the regulatory light chains (LC2) in in vitro assembly of rabbit skeletal and dog cardiac myosins was examined by formation of minifilaments and synthetic thick filaments. After LC2 was removed, the resulting myosin preparations exhibited little aggregation in 0.5 M KCl and 0.05 M potassium phosphate (pH 6.5). Minifilaments migrated as a single, hypersharp peak during sedimentation velocity, but electron microscopic analysis revealed a more destabilized structure for LC2-deficient minifilaments. Thick filaments were formed in buffers containing 0.15 M KCl and the following: 20 mM imidazole; 20 mM imidazole, 5 mM ATP; or 20 mM imidazole, 5 mM ATP, and 5 mM MgCl2, all at pH 7.0. Skeletal and cardiac myosin filaments formed in imidazole buffer alone were bipolar, tapered at both ends, and about 1.6 micron long. Removal of LC2 resulted in the formation of shorter thick filaments (1.2 micron long). This effect could be reversed by reassociation with LC2. Inclusion of ATP in the buffer disrupted the filament structure, resulting in irregular, short filaments (less than 0.6 micron); addition of both ATP and MgCl2 largely reversed the effects of ATP alone. In cardiac myosin filaments, the bare zone diameter increased from 16 nm as measured in control and LC2-recombined samples to 20 nm in LC2-deficient myosin assemblies. These results implicate LC2 in an active role in controlling synthetic thick filament length in both skeletal and cardiac muscles. 相似文献

The influence of caldesmon on ATPase activity of the skeletal muscle actomyosin and bundling of actin filaments 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Chicken gizzard caldesmon causes up to 40% inhibition of Mg2+-ATPase activity of rabbit skeletal muscle actomyosin. In the presence of chicken gizzard tropomyosin this inhibition is significantly increased, reaching a maximum (around 80%) at a molar ratio of caldesmon to actin monomer of 1 to 10-13. The inhibition of actomyosin ATPase takes place over a wide pH range (from 6.0 to 8.0) but is decreased with an increase in KCl and MgCl2 concentrations. Caldesmon, in the range of caldesmon/ actin ratios within which it inhibits actomyosin ATPase, forms bundles of parallelly aligned actin filaments. Calmodulin in the presence of Ca2+ dissociates these bundles and restrains the inhibition of actomyosin ATPase, provided that it is used at a high molar excess over caldesmon. 相似文献

Heavy meromyosin containing almost intact regulatory light chains (LC2) was obtained from monomeric phosphorylated and dephosphorylated rabbit fast skeletal muscle myosin by brief chymotryptic digestion in the presence of CaCl2. Actin filaments, complexed with heavy meromyosin, display two different forms of arrowhead, depending on the form of LC2. 相似文献

We present a study of intramuscular motion during contraction of skeletal muscle myofibrils. Myofibrillar actin was labeled with fluorescent dye so that the ratio of fluorescently labeled to unlabeled protein was 1:105. Such sparse labeling assured that there was on average only one actin-marker present in the focus at a given time. From the intensity signal in the two orthogonal detection channels, significant fluctuations, similar to fluorescent burst in diffusion-based single-molecule detection schemes, were identified via a threshold algorithm and analyzed with respect to their intensity and polarization. When only rigor complexes were formed, the fluctuations of polarized intensity were characterized by unimodal Gaussian photon distributions. During contraction, in contrast, bimodal Gaussian photon distributions were observed above the rigor background threshold. This suggests that the bimodal Gaussian photon distributions represent pre- and post-power stroke conformations. Clusters of polarized photons indicated an anisotropy decay of single actomyosin motors of ~ 9 s during muscle contraction. 相似文献

Human skeletal natural actomyosin contained actin, tropomyosin, troponin and myosin components as judged by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. Purified human myosin contained at least three light chains having molecular weights (±2000) of 25 000, 18 000 and 15 000. Inhibitory and calcium binding components of troponin were identified in an actin-tropomyosin-troponin complex extracted from acetone-dried muscle powder at 37°C. Activation of the Mg-ATPase activity of Ca2+-sensitive human natural or reconstituted actomyosin was half maximal at approximately 3.4 μM Ca2+ concentration (CaEGTA binding constant = 4.4 · 105 at pH 6.8). Subfragment 1, isolated from the human heavy meromyosin by digestion with papain, appeared as a single peak after DEAE-cellulose chromatography. In the pH 6–9 range, the Ca2+-ATPase activity of the subfragment 1 was 1.8-and 4-fold higher that the original heavy meromyosin and myosin, respectively. The ATPase activities of human myosin and its fragments were 6–10 fold lower than those of corresponding proteins from rabbit fast skeletal muscle. Human myosin lost approximately 60% of the Ca2+-ATPase activity at pH 9 without a concomitant change in the number of distribution of its light chains. These findings indicate that human skeletal muscle myosin resembles other slow and fast mammalian muscles. Regulation of human skeletal actomyosin by Ca2+ is similar to that of rabbit fast or slow muscle 相似文献

The effect of twitchin, a thick filament protein of molluscan muscles, on the actin-myosin interaction at several mimicked sequential steps of the ATPase cycle was investigated using the polarized fluorescence of 1.5-IAEDANS bound to myosin heads, FITC-phalloidin attached to actin and acrylodan bound to twitchin in the glycerol-skinned skeletal muscle fibres of mammalian. The phosphorylation-dependent multi-step changes in mobility and spatial arrangement of myosin SH1 helix, actin subunit and twitchin during the ATPase cycle have been revealed. It was shown that nonphosphorylated twitchin inhibited the movements of SH1 helix of the myosin heads and actin subunits and decreased the affinity of myosin to actin by freezing the position and mobility of twitchin in the muscle fibres. The phosphorylation of twitchin reverses this effect by changing the spatial arrangement and mobility of the actin-binding portions of twitchin. In this case, enhanced movements of SH1 helix of the myosin heads and actin subunits are observed. The data imply a novel property of twitchin incorporated into organized contractile system: its ability to regulate the ATPase cycle in a phosphorylation-dependent fashion by changing the affinity and spatial arrangement of the actin-binding portions of twitchin. 相似文献

Summary Experiments are reported demonstrating that differential rates of inactivation of the histochemical staining for myofibrillar actomyosin ATPase in rat skeletal muscle fibers exist following inclusion of low concentrations of Cu2+ in the preincubation medium. This response of rat muscle occurs at near neutral (7.40), acid (4.60), and alkaline (10.30) pH. The response to Cu2+ appears to result from a binding of Cu2+ onto the myofibrillar complex, probably on myosin itself, as it can be reversed by soaking of the pretreated muscle sections in sodium cyanide or the Cu2+ chelator diethyldithiocarbamate. The pattern of modification of the staining pattern following pretreatment with Cu2+ is the mirror image of that produced by pretreatment with acid. The results demonstrate that the inclusion of Cu2+ in the preincubation media for the myofibrillar actomyosin ATPase can be a useful tool to differentiate fiber types. They also support the earlier conclusion that three distinct types of type II fibers can be identified in rat skeletal muscle based on the histochemical staining for myofibrillar actomyosin ATPase. 相似文献

Ascites hepatoma cell line AH-130 was tested for the ability to transport various amino acids and glutathione before and after γ-glutamyl transpeptidase of the cells was affinity-labeled and inactivated by 6-diazo-5-oxo-L-norleucine, a glutamine analog. The rate of uptake of alanine, glycine, leucine and glutamine by the cells remained unchanged after γ-glutamyl transpeptidase was inactivated by this affinity label. This indicated that γ-glutamyl transpeptidase of the cell was not involved in the transport process of these amino acids tested. The uptake of glutathione was also tested before and after affinity labeling the enzyme. The total amount of the radioactivity incorporated into the cells was not significantly affected by the enzyme inactivation. However, the relative amount of incorporated intact glutathione was found to be slightly but significantly increased after membraneous γ-glutamyl transpeptidase was inactivated by the affinity label, while that of component amino acid, glycine, was found to decrease. This indicated that glutathione was taken up by the cell in its intact form as well as in degraded forms into its component amino acids, and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase in the ascites tumor cell AH-130 seemed to be involved in the metabolic process via the latter system. 相似文献

Comparison of the effects of smooth and skeletal tropomyosin on skeletal actomyosin subfragment 1 ATPase 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Chicken gizzard tropomyosin, like rabbit skeletal tropomyosin, inhibits and activates skeletal actomyosin subfragment 1 ATPase at low and high [subfragment 1], respectively, showing that both smooth and skeletal tropomyosin qualitatively produce similar cooperative effects on activity. For gizzard tropomyosin, however, the extent of the inhibition was less, and the activation curve rose more sharply at lower [subfragment 1]. In terms of a two-state cooperative activity model for the actin-tropomyosin filament (Hill, T. L., Eisenberg, E., and Chalovich, J. (1981) Biophys. J. 35, 99-112), these results qualitatively suggest that, for the gizzard tropomyosin system, more units are initially in the active state (in the absence of subfragment 1) and that the switching of units to the active state is more cooperative. The greater cooperativity indicated for the gizzard system may be a consequence of the greater rigidity of gizzard tropomyosin indicated from conformational studies. 相似文献
