Kinetic Gating Mechanisms for Bk Channels
Large conductance calcium-activated K ϩ channels, also referred to as " BK " or " maxi K " channels because of their big single-channel conductance (ف 300 pS in symmetrical 150 mM KCl) are widely distributed in many different tissues (Latorre, 1994; Kaczorowski et al., 1996). A signature feature of BK channels, in addition to their high K ϩ selectivity and conductance, is that they are activa...
متن کاملMyosin-V stepping kinetics: a molecular model for processivity.
Myosin-V is a molecular motor that moves processively along its actin track. We have used a feedback-enhanced optical trap to examine the stepping kinetics of this movement. By analyzing the distribution of time periods separating discrete approximately 36-nm mechanical steps, we characterize the number and duration of rate-limiting biochemical transitions preceding each such step. These data s...
متن کاملMyosin V stepping mechanism.
We observe the myosin V stepping mechanism by traveling wave tracking. This technique, associated with optical tweezers, allows one to follow a scattering particle in a two-dimensional plane, with nanometer accuracy and a temporal resolution in the microsecond range. We have observed that, at the millisecond time scale, the myosin V combines longitudinal and vertical motions during the step. Be...
متن کاملA kinetic model of coordinated myosin V.
We present a kinetic model for the walking of myosin V on actin under conditions of zero external force. The model includes three pathways and the termination of the processivity. Experimentally measured kinetic parameters are used in the model to obtain quantitative results. Using the model and associated parameters, we compute the proportion of the pathway containing an intermediate state, as...
متن کاملA kinetic transport model for actin-myosin interaction
Based on the behavior of individual myosin monomers imbedded in myosin bundles and acting on actin filaments, a kinetic transport model is formulated, describing the sliding filament mechanism. It accounts both for the attachment/detachment kinetics of myosin heads and for the mechanics leading to the sliding motion. The model has the favorable property of a closed ODE system of equations for t...
