Characterization of a caldesmon fragment that competes with myosin-ATP binding to actin.
(East Carolina University, 1993-08)
The protein caldesmon inhibits actin-activated ATP hydrolysis of myosin and inhibits the binding of myosin*ATP to actin. Afragment isolated from a chymotryptic digest of caldesmon contains features of the intact molecule ...
Kinetics of Binding of Caldesmon to Actin
(East Carolina University, 1995-04-28)
The time course of interaction of caldesmon with actin may be monitored by fluorescence changes that occur upon the binding of 12-(N-methyl-N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-l,3-diazol-4-yl))-labeled caldesmon to actin or to acrylodan ...
Ca2+ and Ionic Strength Dependencies of S1-ADP Binding to Actin-Tropomyosin-Troponin: Regulatory Implications
(East Carolina University, 2004-09)
Skeletal and cardiac muscle contraction are inhibited by the actin-associated complex of tropomyosin-troponin. Binding of Ca21 to troponin or binding of ATP-free myosin to actin reverses this inhibition. Ca21 and ATP-free ...
