Myosin from rabbit stomach was highly purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation in the presence of ATP and MgCl2, ultracentrifugation and Sepharose 4B chromatography. The myosin composed of one heavy and two light chains as determined by SDS-gel electrophoresis. The molecular weights of the light chains were the same as those of gizzard myosin, about 20,000 and 17,000, respectively. The pH-activity curve and the KCl concentration dependency of Ca-ATPase of the stomach myosin were similar to those of other smooth muscle myosins. The stomach myosin was more resistant to pepsin digestion than skeletal myosin. Other proteolytic enzymes, trypsin, chymotrypsin, papain, and nagarse, digested the myosin in the same way as skeletal myosin.

Antibodies have been obtained that specifically interact with the transport enzyme (Na+ + K+)-activated ATPase. The antigen used was purified (Na+ + Ka+)-ATPase from canine renal medulla. Purified gamma globulin from immunized animals, but not from control animals or preimmune serum, inhibited (Na+ + Ka+)-ATPase from canine renal medullar with reduction of activity to 33 +/- 4 (SD)% in concentration-dependent manner. Maximum inhibition occurred in less than 5 minutes at 37 degrees C. The Mg++ -dependent, nonouabain inhibited component of activity (Mg++ -ATPase) was unaffected. Fab fragments obtained by papain cleavage of the gamma globulin fraction had similar inhibitory activity and specificity. These antibodies also produced varying degrees of concentration-related inhibition of canine myocardial, calf brain, and human red cell ghost (Na++ + Ka+)-ATPase, but not Mg++-ATPase activity.

A site-specific analog of ATP, 6,6'-dithiobis (inosinyl imidodiphosphate (S2P-PNP), inactivates the ATPase activities of myosin's proteolytic fragments, heavy meromyosin (HMM) and subfragment one (SF1), by formation of mixed disulfides between the 6 position of the purine ring and certain key cysteines. The stoichiometry of the reaction was determined by quantitatively displacing the thiopurine nucleotides from the labeled enzymes with sodium[14-C]cyanide. The thiocyanatoenzyme formed regained 25 percent of the original activity showing that the cysteines modified were not essential for catalysis. The rate of uptake of label paralleled the rate of inactivation. HMM was completely inactivated when 4 mol of thiopurine nucleotide was bound. SF1 made by a papain digestion of myosin incorporarted 2 mol of thiopurine nucleotide when completely inactivated. Having adenylyl imidodiphosphate, areversible competitive inhibitor of myosin's ATPase, present during the inactivation of HMM by S2P-PNP demonstrated that only one cysteine per head needed to be blocked to inactivate the enzyme. Moreover, SF1 made by a trypsin digest of HMM was completely inactivated when only 1.1 mol of the thiopurine nucleotide bound again indicating that blocking only a single cysteine per head was sufficient to cause inactivation. This sulfhydryl is thought to be at an ATP binding site distinct from the ATPase site. The properties of this second ATP binding site are consistent with it being an ATP regulatory site.

The binding of ADP to subfragment-1 was investigated by the gel filtration method. The amount of bound ADP was determined as a function of free ADP concentration. Linear Scatchard plots were obtained. The maximum binding number, 0.55 mole of ADP per 10(5) g of protein, and the dissociation constant, 1.6 x 10(-6) M, were obtained, using subfragment-1 prepared by tryptic digestion, in the presence of 0.083 M KCl-10 mM MgCl2-0.02 M Tris-HCl (pH 8), at 25 degrees. Similar maximum numbers, about 0.5 mole per 10(5) g of protein, were obtained with subfragment-1 prepared by chymotryptic digestion of myosin or papain digestion of myofibrils. The maximum number did not depend on the KCl concentration or the temperature, while the dissociation constant decreased on decreasing either the KCl concentration or the temperature. Adenylyl imidodiphosphate binding to subfragment-1 prepared by chymotryptic digestion was also measured by the gel filtration method. The maximum binding number, 0.41 mole per 10(5) g of subfragment-1, and the dissociation constant, less than 10(-7) M, were obtained in the presence of 0.7 M KCl-10 mM MgCl2-0.02 M Tris-HCl (pH 8), at 8 degrees. The difference absorbance at 288 nm of the difference absorption spectrum induced by ADP of subfragment-1 prepared by tryptic digestion was proportional to the amount of bound ADP. The steady-state ATPase rate of subfragment-1 prepared by tryptic digestion was inhibited competitively by ADP in the presence of MgCl2. The extent of the initial burst of ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] decreased from 0.46 +/- 0.06 to 0.30 +/- 0.09 mole of Pi per 10(5) g of subfragment-1 on adding ADP to a level of 0.6 mM. Subfragment-1 prepared by tryptic digestion bound F-actin with a mole ratio of 1/0.96 of actin monomer. The binding was depressed by the addition of ADP. On the basis of these results, subfragment-1 preparations were assumed to be a half-and-half mixture of two kinds of protein, and properties of each protein are discussed.

H-Meromyosin (HMM) was digested with insoluble papain [EC 3.4.22.2]. Neither the size of the initial burst of Pi liberation (0.5 mole/mole of myosin head) nor the Mg2+-ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] activity of HMM in the steady state was affected by this treatment. Acto-S-1 was obtained by mixing F-actin with HMM digested with insoluble papain (HMM-S-1). The size of the initial burst of Pi liberation of acto-S-1 was 0.35 mole/mole of S-l at an ATP concentration of 0.5 mole/mole of S-1, and 0.5 mole/moleof S-1 at ATP concentrations above 1 mole/mole of S-1...

Human skeletal natural actomyosin contained actin, tropomyosin, troponin and myosin components as judged by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. Purified human myosin contained at least three light chains having molecular weights (+/-2000) of 25 000, 18 000 and 15 000. Inhibitory and calcium binding components of troponin were identified in an actin-tropomyosin-troponin complex extracted from acetone-dried muscle powder at 37 degrees C. Activation of the Mg-ATPase activity of Ca2+-sensitive human natural or reconstituted actomyosin was half maximal at approximately 3.4 muM Ca2+ concentration (CaEGTA binding constant equals 4.4 - 10(5) at pH 6.8). Subfragment 1, isolated from the human heavy meromyosin by digestion with papain, appeared as a single peak after DEAE-cellulose chromatography. In the pH 6-9 range, the Ca2+-ATPase activity of the subfragment 1 was 1.8- and 4-fold higher that the original heavy meromyosin and myosin, respectively. The ATPase activities of human myosin and its fragments were 6-10 fold lower than those of corresponding proteins from rabbit fast skeletal muscle. Human myosin lost approximately 60% of the Ca2+-ATPase activity at pH 9 without a concomitant change in the number of distribution of its light chains. These findings indicate that human skeletal muscle myosin resembles other slow and fast mammalian muscles. Regulation of human skeletal actomyosin by Ca2+ is similar to that of rabbit fast or slow muscle.

The kinetics of the Mg2+-dependent ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) activity of bovine cardiac myosin and its papain subfragment-1 were studied by using steady-state and pre-steady-state techniques, and results were compared with published values for the corresponding processes in the ATPase mechanism of rabbit skeletal-muscle myosin subfragment-1. The catalytic-centreactivity for cardiac subfragment-1 is 0.019s-1, which is less than one-third of that determined for the rabbit protein. The ATP-induced isomerization process, measured from enhancement of protein fluorescence on substrate binding, is similarly decreased in rate, as is also the isomerization process associated with ADP release. However, the equilibrium constant for ATP cleavage, measured by quenched-flow by using [gamma-32P]ATP, shows little difference in the two species. Other experiments were carried out to investigate the rate of association of actin with subfragment-1 by light-scattering changes and also the rate of dissociation of the complex by ATP. The dissociation rate increases with increasing substrate concentration, to a maximum at high ATP concentrations, with a rate constant of about 2000s-1. It appears that isomerization processes which may involve conformational changes have substantially lower rate constants for the cardiac proteins, whereas equilibrium constants for substrate binding and cleavage are not significantly different. These differences may be related to the functional properties of these myosins in their different muscle types. Kinetic heterogeneity has been detected in both steady-state and transient processes, and this is discussed in relation to the apparent chemical homogeneity of cardiac myosin.

During Mn(II)-ATP hydrolysis by myosin, the predominant intermediate formed at the burst site of the enzyme below 10 degrees is the myosin-ADP complex formed by adding ADP to myosin, while above 10 degrees it is the myosin -ADP-P1 complex generated by ATP hydroolysis (Yazawa, Morita, & Yagi (1973) J. Biochem. 74, 1107; Hozumi & Tawada (1975) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 376, 1; Tawada & Yoshida (1975) J. Biochem. 78, 293). It is suggested that the second (non-burst) site of myosin predominantly forms the myosin-ATP complex (Hozumi & Tawada, ibid.). From these findings, it is expected that (i) myosin subfragment 1 (S1) having the burst site is bound to actin in Mn(II)-ATP solution containing ADP below 10 degrees, because it forms the S1-ADP complex even in the presence of ATP; (ii) the other S1, i.e., that having the non-burst site, is dissociated from actin, because it forms the S1-ATP complex. These two expectations were confirmed by viscosity measurements of acto-S1 solutions, giving a basis for the separation of S1 into two fractions: one having the burst site and the other having the non-burst site. S1 having the non-burst site could be extracted from partially papain [EC 3.4.22.2]-digested myofibrils of rabbit skeletal muscle with a solution containing MnCl2, ATP, and ADP at 0 degrees. S1 having the burst site was extracted from myofibrils already used for the extraction of S1 having the non-burst site, with a solution containing MgCl2 and ATP at 20 degrees. The former S1 fraction had Mg-ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] activity, but scarcely showed any initial burst of Pi liberation. The latter S1 showed a Pi burst of more than 0.5 (M/M). The steady state ATPase activity of the former S1 was slightly higher than that of the latter. The burst size of normal S1, i.e., that extracted from papain-digested myofibrils with Mg-PPi or Mg-ATP, was 0.5 (M/M). The ultraviolet absorption spectrum of the non-burst type S1 was not changed by ADP but was changed by ATP, though the difference spectrum was distinct from that of normal S1 and the difference molar extinction coefficient at 289 nm was only 20% of that of normal S1. No significant difference was seen in the compositions of these two S1's and normal S1, as determined by SDS gel electrophoresis.

The ATPase activity of chicken gizzard myosin was studied by varying the KCl concentration in the reaction medium. The following was thus found: (a) A sharp depression of the activity occurred when the KCl concentration was reduced to less than 0.3 M, showing the minimum activity around 0.15 M KCl. (b) The activity depression was removed by addition of urea or bay papain-digestion, but not by addition of p-chloromercuribenzoate. (c) In the KCl concentration where the activity depression occurred, the ATPase reaction proceeded in two distinct phases; the activity was relatively high in the early phase of the reaction and declined into the later phase where the steady state reaction took place. (d) In the KCl concentrations higher than that particular concentration or in the presence of urea, the ATPase reaction proceeded in one phase. (e) The temperature dependence of the ATPase activity in the early phase was of an ordinary magnitude being approximately equal to that of the ATPase activity in 0.6 M KCl. In contrast, the temperature dependence of the activity in the later phase was unusually small. Gizzard myosin in various concentrations of KCl was also examined by measuring the turbidity and the light-scattering intensity, and by observation under an electron microscope. The following was thus found: (a) In the KCl concentration where the activity depression occurred, there was a stagnation in the turbidity decrease as the KCl concentration was gradually increased and also the formation of "thick filaments," each of which was approximately 0.6-0.9 micron in length and 20-30 nm in diameter with no central "bare zone." (b) Addition of ATP induced dissociation of the thick filaments, and the dissociation occurred during the early phase of the ATPaseeaction. (c) Moreover, the temperature dependence of the ATP-induced dissociation rate was approximately equal to that of the ATPase activity in the early phase. On the basis of the findings mentioned above, it is concluded that the activity depression results from the ATP-induced dissociation of myosin filaments. Moreover, since high concentrations of KCl or urea also caused dissociation of myosin filaments and yet did not produce the activity depression, it was strongly suggested that gizzard myosin in the ATP-dissociated form must be different from that in the urea- or KCl-dissociated form, probably in the physical state of some myosin aggregates which were not detectable by the physical methods we used. As a side-observation, gizzard myosin filaments formed in the presence of ADP were found to be unusually long (longer than 2 micron), and they looked very similar to the particular filaments of skeletal myosin that were reported, by Moos, to be formed in the absence of the C protein.

Myosin and subfragment-1 were prepared from rabbit hearts hypertrophied secondary to pulmonary artery constriction. The Ca2+ -stimulated ATPase activity was reduced while the potassium/EDTA-stimulated ATPase activity was unchanged in both the myosin and subfragment 1 (S-1) from hypertrophied hearts. When hypertrophy myosin was mixed with an equal quantity of control myosin, the ATPase activity of the mixed protein fell halfway between control and hypertrophy values. Similar results were obtained with control and hypertrophy S-1. The actin-stimulated ATPase activity of hypertrophy S-1 was slightly depressed but unlike hypertrophy myosin this depression was not significant when compared to normal S-1. This suggests that papain cleavage may have removed part of the conformational difference that exists between control and hypertrophy myosins.
