Modification of thiols of gizzard myosin alters ATPase activity, stability of myosin filaments, and the 6-10 S conformational transition.
The pattern of incorporation of [14C]N-ethylmaleimide (MalNEt) into gizzard myosin indicates the presence of two classes of thiols: rapidly and slowly modified. The first class contains two thiol residues, SH-A and SH-B, located in the myosin rod and the 17-kDa light chain, respectively, while the second contains at least two thiols located in the myosin heavy chain. Changes in ATPase activitie...
متن کاملProtein Stability, Folding, Disaggregation and Etiology of Conformational Malfunctions
Estimation of protein stability is important for many reasons: first providing an understanding of the basic thermodynamics of the process of folding, protein engineering, and protein stability plays important role in biotechnology especially in food and protein drug design. Today, proteins are used in many branches, including industrial processes, pharmaceutical industry, and medical fields. A...
متن کاملStructural stability of myosin rod from silver carp as affected by season.
UNLABELLED Chymotrypsin digestion and Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy were used to study the structural stability of myosin rods prepared from silver carp in summer and winter. Differences in the thermal stability were clearly demonstrated by the chymotryptic digestion patterns and CD data obtained at pH 7.5 in 0.5 M KCl for myosin rods in both seasons, indicating the structural properties...
متن کاملAssociation of myosin with the connecting cilium of rod photoreceptors.
The cilium of a vertebrate photoreceptor cell connects the phototransductive outer segment of the cell to the inner segment. Previous studies have shown that, within the connecting cilium, there is a small cluster of actin filaments, which play a critical role in the formation of new disk membranes. Here, we have detected a polypeptide in rat rod outer segments that is recognized by myosin heav...
متن کاملPlatelet myosin. Localization of the rod myosin fragment and effect of its antibodies on platelet function.
Partial hydrolysis of human platelet or uterine smooth muscle myosin with insoluble papain yielded rod fragments, insoluble at low ionic strength and devoid of ATPase activity. This protein migrated on sodium dodecyl sulfate-8 M urea gel electrophoresis as a single band with a molecular weight of approximately 110,000 to 120,000 corresponding to the rod portion of myosin. Rabbit antibodies to p...
