Effect of cardiac and skeletal tropomyosin on Mg2+-actomyosin ATPase
Abstract
Tropomyosin, one of the proteins regulating the sarcomere, was prepared from pig heart and rabbit skeletal muscles. The effect of these two different tropomyosins was studied between 0.5 and 10 mM of Mg2+ at a constant ATP concentration (1 mM) on reconstituted actomyosin prepared from pig heart myosin and rabbit skeletal actin. Cardiac and skeletal tropomyosin both activated the ATPase at low Mg2+ concentrations and inhibited it above 3 mM. The pig heart and rabbit skeletal tropomyosins which contain two isomers, alpha alpha and alpha beta, respectively has very similar effects on actomyosin ATPase.
