1. The troponin complex from skeletal muscle contains approximately 1 mol of phosphate/80000g of complex, covalently bound to the troponin T component. 2. On prolonged incubation of the troponin complex or troponin T with phosphorylase kinase the phosphate content of troponin T was increased to approx. 3mol/mol. 3. On prolonged incubation of troponin I with phosphorylase kinase up to 1.6mol of ...

Ca2+ dissociation from the regulatory domain of troponin C may influence the rate of striated muscle relaxation. However, Ca(2+) dissociation from troponin C has not been measured within the geometric and stoichiometric constraints of the muscle fiber. Here we report the rates of Ca(2+) dissociation from the N-terminal regulatory and C-terminal structural domains of fluorescent troponin C const...

Conformational exchange has been demonstrated within the regulatory domain of calcium-saturated cardiac troponin C when bound to the NH2-terminal domain of cardiac troponin I-(1-80), and cardiac troponin I-(1-80)DD, having serine residues 23 and 24 mutated to aspartate to mimic the phosphorylated form of the protein. Binding of cardiac troponin I-(1-80) decreases conformational exchange for res...

Cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and troponin I (cTnI) are cardiac regulatory proteins that control the calcium mediated interaction between actin and myosin [1]. The troponin complex consists of three subunits: troponin C, troponin I, and troponin T. This complex is located on the myofibrillar thin (actin) filament of striated (skeletal and cardiac) muscle. The cardiac isoforms troponin T and I are o...

Troponin I is the actomyosin ATPase inhibitory subunit present in the thin filament regulatory complex. The complete amino acid sequence of crayfish tail muscle troponin I has been determined. The protein is composed of 201 amino acid residues and has a molecular weight of 23,547. The N terminus is blocked, likely by an acetyl group. Crayfish troponin I shows a rather low (20-25%) sequence iden...

Objective(s):Biochemical markers are important for the timely diagnosis and follow-up of ischemic events. Most of the markers have been previously studied in the context of cardiac ischemia. However, research on markers of non-cardiac events has been insufficient. Therefore, we investigated the relationship between troponin and myoglobin which are commonly used markers of cardiac ischemia, in n...
