Myosin phosphorylation during contraction and relaxation of tracheal smooth muscle.
The role of myosin phosphorylation in regulating smooth muscle contraction has been investigated by quantitating the myosin phosphate content of tracheal smooth muscle frozen during contraction or relaxation. Myosin was purified from quick-frozen muscle samples with the aid of antibodies prepared against tracheal smooth muscle myosin, and the phosphate content was determined after separation of...
متن کاملQuantitation of myosin light chain phosphorylation in intact smooth muscle.
An improved method for quantitating the extent of myosin light chain (P-LC) phosphorylation in small smooth muscle samples is described. Native myosin was isolated from other cellular proteins in a crude supernatant fraction prepared from a few milligrams of bovine tracheal smooth muscle by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) in the presence of sodium pyrophosphate (PPi). When potassium i...
متن کاملNonmuscle myosin is regulated during smooth muscle contraction.
The participation of nonmuscle myosin in force maintenance is controversial. Furthermore, its regulation is difficult to examine in a cellular context, as the light chains of smooth muscle and nonmuscle myosin comigrate under native and denaturing electrophoresis techniques. Therefore, the regulatory light chains of smooth muscle myosin (SM-RLC) and nonmuscle myosin (NM-RLC) were purified, and ...
متن کاملThin-layer acrylamide gel electrophoresis.
A thin-layer acrylamide gel electrophoresis technique suitable for analysis of serum or urine proteins is described in detail. The method gives sharp differentiation of protein fractions and is particularly suitable for the analysis of biological solutions containing proteins in low concentration.
متن کاملHemoglobin electrophoresis in acrylamide gel.
By THOMAS G. FERRIS, ROBERT E. EASTERLING AND RICHARD E. BUDD T HE VARIOUS types of hemoglobins have been identified and reported by means of zone electrophoresis using supporting media such as filter paper,’ starch,2 agar,3 cellulose acetate,4 and combinations of these media. Recently a synthetic acrylamide gel ( Cyanogum 41#{176} ) has been investigated and found to have characteristics which...
