The delta-14 Mutation of Human Cardiac Troponin T Enhances ATPase Activity and Alters the Cooperative Binding of S1-ADP to Regulated Actin
(East Carolina University, 2004-12-07)
The complex of tropomyosin and troponin binds to actin and inhibits activation of myosin ATPase activity and force production of striated muscles at low free Ca2+ concentrations. Ca2+ stimulates ATP activity, and at ...
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 ...
Disruption of pqs synthesis using precursor analogs
(2004-01-08)
The present invention concerns methods of detecting bacterial infections as well as methods of treating such infections with compounds such as methyl anthranilate. The detection and treatment of Pseudomonas is particularly ...
