ATPase Activity of Myosin Correlated with Speed of Muscle Shortening 总被引:32,自引:6,他引:26
Michael Brny 《The Journal of general physiology》1967,50(6):197-218
Myosin was isolated from 14 different muscles (mammals, lower vertebrates, and invertebrates) of known maximal speed of shortening. These myosin preparations were homogeneous in the analytical ultracentrifuge or, in a few cases, showed, in addition to the main myosin peak, part of the myosin in aggregated form. Actin- and Ca++-activated ATPase activities of the myosins were generally proportional to the speed of shortening of their respective muscles; i.e. the greater the intrinsic speed, the higher the ATPase activity. This relation was found when the speed of shortening ranged from 0.1 to 24 muscle lengths/sec. The temperature coefficient of the Ca++-activated myosin ATPase was the same as that of the speed of shortening, Q10 about 2. Higher Q10 values were found for the actin-activated myosin ATPase, especially below 10°C. By using myofibrils instead of reconstituted actomyosin, Q10 values close to 2 could be obtained for the Mg++-activated myofibrillar ATPase at ionic strength of 0.014. In another series of experiments, myosin was isolated from 11 different muscles of known isometric twitch contraction time. The ATPase activity of these myosins was inversely proportional to the contraction time of the muscles. These results suggest a role for the ATPase activity of myosin in determining the speed of muscle contraction. In contrast to the ATPase activity of myosin, which varied according to the speed of contraction, the F-actin-binding ability of myosin from various muscles was rather constant. 相似文献

平滑肌肌球蛋白轻链激酶的非激酶作用及对ATP 酶活性的调节 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
肌球蛋白轻链激酶(myosin light chain kinase, MLCK)具有激酶活性和非激酶活性,在平滑肌收缩过程中起着关键酶调控的作用.为探寻MLCK的非激酶活性区域对MLCK活性的影响,以进一步阐明MLCK的非激酶活性在调节平滑肌收缩过程中的分子机制.采用PCR技术构建MLCK部分氨基酸缺失的重组表达载体pGEX-F6-5/D,经大肠杆菌表达得到可溶性GST融合蛋白,利用SDS-PAGE及Western 印迹鉴定表达的MLCK在细胞中的分布,结果还显示,提取液的上清和沉淀中均有MLCK片段的表达.运用亲和层析技术分离并纯化删除前、后表达的MLCK片段(F6.5和F6-5/D),经谷胱甘肽琼脂糖凝胶 4B 纯化,SDS-PAGE鉴定显示为单一表达条带.应用EnzChek磷分析试剂盒和孔雀绿两种方法分别测定不同浓度的MLCK对非磷酸化肌球蛋白Mg2+-ATP酶活性的影响.两种MLCK的片段均具有激活ATP酶活性的作用,并随MLCK浓度的增加,酶的活性增加.比较删除前后不同MLCK片段对ATP酶活性的影响结果显示,删除MLCK片段1002位丙氨酸至1019位亮氨酸后,对ATP酶的激活作用较删除前明显降低,表明删除的部分氨基酸序列为MLCK非激酶活性所必需的区域.利用电镜技术观察到MLCK片段(F6.5)使非磷酸化肌球蛋白构象发生明显的变化.加入MLCK片段后肌球蛋白的构象由非活性型转化为活性型,并且MLCK片段还具有促进肌球蛋白单体形成肌丝的作用. 相似文献

Abstract Myosin can be frozen in liquid nitrogen (?70°C) and stored at this temperature for 5 months with no loss in K+, Ca2+, or actin + Mg2+ -stimulated ATPase activities. Furthermore, myosin can be refrozen and thawed in this manner for at least 5 consecutive times with no alteration in ATP ase activity. 相似文献

THE limb muscles of mammals such as the cat and rat can be divided into the fast-twitch muscles and the slow-twitch muscles. While the absolute contraction speeds vary from species to species the isometric twitch time (the time taken from the start of contraction until the instant of peak tension development) of a slow-twitch muscle is always about three times longer than the isometric twitch time of a fast-twitch muscle. Thus, at 37° C, the isometric twitch time of cat soleus muscle (a slow-twitch muscle) is approximately 70 ms while the isometric twitch time of the flexor hallucis longus muscle (a fast-twitch muscle) is approximately 20 ms. In the rat, the contraction times of the corresponding muscles would be of the order of 36 ms and 12 ms respectively. 相似文献

Supraphysiological mechanical stretching in smooth muscle results in decreased contractile activity. However, the mechanism is unclear. Previous studies indicated that intestinal motility dysfunction after edema development is associated with increased smooth muscle stress and decreased myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation in vivo, providing an ideal model for studying mechanical stress-mediated decrease in smooth muscle contraction. Primary human intestinal smooth muscle cells (hISMCs) were subjected to either control cyclical stretch (CCS) or edema (increasing) cyclical stretch (ECS), mimicking the biophysical forces in non-edematous and edematous intestinal smooth muscle in vivo. ECS induced significant decreases in phosphorylation of MLC and MLC phosphatase targeting subunit (MYPT1) and a significant increase in p21-activated kinase (PAK) activity compared with CCS. PAK regulated MLC phosphorylation in an activity-dependent biphasic manner. PAK activation increased MLC and MYPT1 phosphorylation in CCS but decreased MLC and MYPT1 phosphorylation in hISMCs subjected to ECS. PAK inhibition had the opposite results. siRNA studies showed that PAK1 plays a critical role in regulating MLC phosphorylation in hISMCs. PAK1 enhanced MLC phosphorylation via phosphorylating MYPT1 on Thr-696, whereas PAK1 inhibited MLC phosphorylation via decreasing MYPT1 on both Thr-696 and Thr-853. Importantly, in vivo data indicated that PAK activity increased in edematous tissue, and inhibition of PAK in edematous intestine improved intestinal motility. We conclude that PAK1 positively regulates MLC phosphorylation in intestinal smooth muscle through increasing inhibitory phosphorylation of MYPT1 under physiologic conditions, whereas PAK1 negatively regulates MLC phosphorylation via inhibiting MYPT1 phosphorylation when PAK activity is increased under pathologic conditions. 相似文献

Traditional methods for visualizing ATPase in sections use heavy metals that generate visible metal salfide products. These methods use unpleasant and toxic reagents. We report a safer method using a novel ferric ion chelating agent to produce highly specific, low background, and permanent staining of muscle fiber enzymes. 相似文献

The Regulation of Catch in Molluscan Muscle 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Betty M. Twarog 《The Journal of general physiology》1967,50(6):157-169
Molluscan catch muscles are smooth muscles. As with mammalian smooth muscles, there is no transverse ordering of filaments or dense bodies. In contrast to mammalian smooth muscles, two size ranges of filaments are present. The thick filaments are long as well as large in diameter and contain paramyosin. The thin filaments contain actin and appear to run into and join the dense bodies. Vesicles are present which may be part of a sarcoplasmic reticulum. Neural activation of contraction in Mytilus muscle is similar to that observed in mammalian smooth muscles, and in some respects to frog striated muscle. The relaxing nerves, which reduce catch, are unique to catch muscles. 5-Hydroxytryptamine, which appears to mediate relaxation, specifically blocks catch tension but increases the ability of the muscle to fire spikes. It is speculated that Mytilus muscle actomyosin is activated by a Ca++-releasing mechanism, and that 5-hydroxytryptamine may reduce catch and increase excitability by influencing the rate of removal of intracellular free Ca++. 相似文献

We examined the magnesium dependence of five class II myosins, including fast skeletal muscle myosin, smooth muscle myosin, β-cardiac myosin (CMIIB), Dictyostelium myosin II (DdMII), and nonmuscle myosin IIA, as well as myosin V. We found that the myosins examined are inhibited in a Mg2+-dependent manner (0.3–9.0 mm free Mg2+) in both ATPase and motility assays, under conditions in which the ionic strength was held constant. We found that the ADP release rate constant is reduced by Mg2+ in myosin V, smooth muscle myosin, nonmuscle myosin IIA, CMIIB, and DdMII, although the ADP affinity is fairly insensitive to Mg2+ in fast skeletal muscle myosin, CMIIB, and DdMII. Single tryptophan probes in the switch I (Trp-239) and switch II (Trp-501) region of DdMII demonstrate these conserved regions of the active site are sensitive to Mg2+ coordination. Cardiac muscle fiber mechanic studies demonstrate cross-bridge attachment time is increased at higher Mg2+ concentrations, demonstrating that the ADP release rate constant is slowed by Mg2+ in the context of an activated muscle fiber. Direct measurements of phosphate release in myosin V demonstrate that Mg2+ reduces actin affinity in the M·ADP·Pi state, although it does not change the rate of phosphate release. Therefore, the Mg2+ inhibition of the actin-activated ATPase activity observed in class II myosins is likely the result of Mg2+-dependent alterations in actin binding. Overall, our results suggest that Mg2+ reduces the ADP release rate constant and rate of attachment to actin in both high and low duty ratio myosins. 相似文献

Myosin B from normal and PSE porcine muscles was studied by superprecipitation and SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Similar studies were made on the fractions derived from the myosin B preparation after ultracentrifugation. Myosin B and its fractions from PSE muscle showed much less superprecipitation than normal. This difference between normal and PSE muscle seems to reflect differences in biological activity of their myofibrillar proteins, rather than differences in myofibrillar protein composition. 相似文献

TAYLOR and his co-workers have shown that myosin, when mixed with its substrate ATP, rapidly forms a stoichiometric complex in which the terminal phosphate bond of the ATP is already broken1; this complex is relatively stable and lasts for nearly all of the time between successive ATP hydrolyses2. The aim of the present work was to find out whether such a complex is formed in relaxed muscle. 相似文献

The extent of activation of myofibrillar ATPase activity by trypsin treatment has been measured.When myofibril (5 mg/ml) was treated with a low concentration of trypsin (2.5 μg/ml), the Mg-modified ATPase activity of myofibrils at a low ionic strength increased appreciably, while the EDTA-enhanced ATPase activity of myofibrils at a high ionic strength did not change with the progress of trypsin digestion.The dependence of myofibrillar ATPase activity on KCl concentration also became greater with the progress of trypsin digestion.Trypsin treatment caused 5-fold increase in the Mg-modified ATPase activity of 0-myofibril, when treated with trypsin in a ratio of 1 to 2000 myofibril for 80 min. Under the same condition, the ATPase activity of 1-myofibril increased by about 150%, whereas that of 8-myofibril increased by approximately 50%.When myofibrils were treated with trypsin in a ratio of 1 to 200 myofibril, the Mg-ATPase activity of 8-myofibril decreased earlier than that of 1-myofibril did by about 20 min.Experimental results obtained in this study were enough to confirm that the myofibrils from the aged muscle are more susceptible to tryptic action.An assumption was made that the structural alteration of myofibrils during aging might be attributed to the change in thin filament of myofibrils, including Z-lines, which are mainly due to the change in the native tropomyosin of thin filaments. 相似文献

The cellular cytoskeleton is crucial for many cellular functions such as cell motility and wound healing, as well as other processes that require shape change or force generation. Actin is one cytoskeleton component that regulates cell mechanics. Important properties driving this regulation include the amount of actin, its level of cross-linking, and its coordination with the activity of specific molecular motors like myosin. While studies investigating the contribution of myosin activity to cell mechanics have been performed on cells attached to a substrate, we investigated mechanical properties of cells in suspension. To do this, we used multiple probes for cell mechanics including a microfluidic optical stretcher, a microfluidic microcirculation mimetic, and real-time deformability cytometry. We found that nonadherent blood cells, cells arrested in mitosis, and naturally adherent cells brought into suspension, stiffen and become more solidlike upon myosin inhibition across multiple timescales (milliseconds to minutes). Our results hold across several pharmacological and genetic perturbations targeting myosin. Our findings suggest that myosin II activity contributes to increased whole-cell compliance and fluidity. This finding is contrary to what has been reported for cells attached to a substrate, which stiffen via active myosin driven prestress. Our results establish the importance of myosin II as an active component in modulating suspended cell mechanics, with a functional role distinctly different from that for substrate-adhered cells. 相似文献

A simple and sensitive calcium precipitation method is described for the histochemical demonstration of myosin ATPase in striated muscle. In this technique inorganic pyrophosphate is incorporated in the fixative to protect the sites of myosin ATPase activity, thus minimizing enzymatic inactivation during fixation. The incubation medium used contains Ca++ (70 mM) as the capturing agent, ATP (4 mM) as substrate, citric acid (7.5 mM) and gelatin. During incubation, the enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP and inorganic phosphate. The liberated phosphate is precipitated as “calcium-citro-phosphate”. The latter is then converted to black cobalt sulphide. The calcium-citro-phosphate is rapidly formed during incubation (within 10 min) and can not be washed off the tissue sections. 相似文献

在有Ca2+和钙调蛋白存在时,肌球蛋白轻链激酶催化肌球蛋白磷酸化,促使肌动蛋白激活的肌球蛋白(肌动球蛋白)Mg2+-ATP酶活性显著增加.然而,肌球蛋白磷酸化水平与Mg2+-ATP酶之间的关系是非线性的,原肌球蛋白可以进一步增加Mg2+-ATP酶的活性,但仍不改变它们之间的非线性关系.肌球蛋白轻链激酶的合成肽抑制剂抑制了肌球蛋白磷酸化和Mg2+-ATP酶活性,并导致平滑肌去膜肌纤维的等长收缩张力与速度的降低.结果提示肌球蛋白轻链激酶参与脊椎动物平滑肌收缩的调节过程,肌球蛋白轻链磷酸化作用会引起平滑肌收缩 相似文献
