A myosin B-like protein was extracted from the alga Nitella flexilis. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed the presence of myosin heavy chain and actin as the main components. At high ionic strength, its ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] reaction was activated by EDTA or Ca2+ and inhibited by Mg2+. At low ionic strength, superprecipitation was induced by the addition of ATP. Myosin was purified from Nitella myosin B. The molecular weight of the heavy chain of Nitella myosin, estimated by SDS-gel electrophoresis, was slightly higher than that of skeletal muscle myosin. At low ionic strength, Nitella myosin aggregated to form bipolar filaments about 0.2 micron long. At high ionic strength, its ATPase reaction was activated by EDTA or Ca2+, and inhibited by Mg2+. The Mg2+-ATPase reaction of Nitella myosin was activated by skeletal muscle F-actin.

Immediately after the death of rabbits and at different times within 48 hours, we took out a part of the psoas muscle, from which we made myofibrilar preparations. The carcasses providing the muscle samples were held at two different temperatures. One group was held for 48 hours at 25 degrees C, imitating room temperature. The other group was held for 12 hours at 25 C degrees and at 25 C degrees and 12 hours at 10 C degrees, imitating daily temperature changes. Each myofibrilar sample was subjected to SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In addition we determined the Ca++ activated and the EGTA inhibited ATPase specific activity of the myofibrils. We found that within 48 hours the myofibrilar proteins were subjected to some characteristic proteolytic changes, which were dependant on the environmental temperature. The most interesting change was found in carcasses held constantly at 25 C degrees for 48 hours, where the EGTA inhibited ATPase activity was increased to about seven times its initial value, reflecting impairment of the troponin complex.

1. Morphologic as well as biochemical alterations in chronic ischemic myocardial tissue without infarction were studied in dogs utilizing the Ameroid constrictor. 2. Serum creatine kinase activity elevated at around three weeks after placing the Ameroid constrictor around the circumflex branch of the left coronary artery suggestive of myocardial tissue injury followed by the initial activation caused by surgery. 3. Subendocardial proliferation of connective tissue was observed in about 60% of the experiments, but the middle and the subepicardial muscles were morphologically intact. 4. The marked increase in glycogen particles was observed in the subendocardial muscle cells in most of the experiments, and mild features of myocardial cellular necrosis were found in approximately 60% of the experiments. 5. ATPase activities of the structural proteins as well as sarcoplasmic reticulum in the ischemic myocardium shoed relatively higher values than those in the non-ischemic myocardium. However, no substructural changes were observed in SDS gel electrophoresis in both the fractions. 6. The alterations in the chronic myocardial ischemia are supposed to be essentially the same as those in myocardial necrosis followed by acute coronary occlusion.

Membrane-bound and free polyribosomes were isolated from skeletal muscle of neonatal rats and messages were translated in a rabbit reticulocyte lysate treated with Ca2+ -dependent nuclease to reduce endogenous messenger translation. Newly synthesized calsequestrin and adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) sere isolated by antibody precipitation, followed by separation of the precipitates in SDS-polyacrylamide gels. Radioactivity in calsequestrin and the ATPase were counted in gel slices. Calsewuestrin and the ATPase were both found to be synthesized on membrane-bound polyribosomes. Since calsequestrin is a glycoprotein, localized in Golgi regions in early stages of muscle cell differentiation, it is probable that its synthesis follows the pathway for synthesis of secreted proteins except that its destination is the luminal space of a cellular organelle. The disposition of the ATPase during synthesis is, as yet, unknown.

ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) activity was shown in the soluble fraction of rat liver micochondria. Two molecular forms (ATPase 1 and 2) were isolated. ATPase 1 has already been studied. The present paper deals with the purification method of ATPase 2 which was achieved by the following steps: (NH4)2SO4 precipitation. DEAE-cellulose chromatography, hydroxyapatite chromatography, Sephadex G100 filtration and AMP-Sepharose affinity chromatography. The purified protein was characterized by bidimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Molecular weight evaluated by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Sephadex G100 gel filtration was found to be 61 500 +/- 3000.

1. Influence of ischemia on the biochemical properties of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) was studied in the experimental myocardial infarction in the dog. 2. Ca2+ -uptake rate of SR decreased at around 90 minutes after coronary occlusion. This reduction was roughly in parallel with the reduction in the Ca+ -Mg2+ -stimulated ATPase activity. However, Ca2+ -binding rate of SR was kept within the range of that of the non-infarcted tissue through the time course of myocardial infarction. 3. Ca2+ -Mg2+ -stimulated ATPase activity decreased at around 3 hours after coronary occlusion to about 50% of that of the non-infarcted portion. 4. In SDS gel electrophoresis, the protein band with the largest molecular weight among three major components decreased at 3 hours after coronary occlusion, which is suggestive of ATPase. At 48 hours after coronary occlusion, the protein with the smallest molecular weight in the major proteins also decreased. 5. Ca2+ -uptake rate, Ca2+ -Mg2+ -stimulated ATPase activity and the substructural changes return to the normal level and pattern at around 28 days after coronary occlusion.

The purified 20,000-dalton fragment of sarcoplasmic reticulum (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase has been shown by us (A.E. Shamoo, T.E. Ryan, P.S. Stewart, D.H. MacLennan, 1976. J. Biol. Chem. 251:4147) to have Ca2+-selective ionophoric activity. The Ca2+-ionophoric fragment has been purified by either SDS-column chromatography or SDS-preparative gel electrophoresis. The Ca2+-ionophoric fragment has been subjected to prolonged dialysis to insure the removal of bound SDS from the fragment. The selectivity sequence of this fragment in black lipid membranes (BLM) formed from either oxidized cholesterol or phosphatidylcholine/cholesterol is the same, PBa greater than PCa greater than PSr greater than PMg greater than PMn. This selectivity sequence is the same as that for the intact (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase. Treatment of the fragment with cholate to absolutely insure the removal of bound SDS resulted in the fragment having a selectivity sequence as above except that PMn greater than PMg. This and other data indicate that the 20,000-dalton fragment is the site containing the Ca2+-ionophoric activity of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase.

A method for primary culture of ovine myometrial cells is described. After dissection, myometrium of ewe uteri was digested in trypsin and collagenase. The cells were preplated for 1 h at 37 degrees C. The non-attached cells were grown in appropriate medium supplemented with 2% fetal calf serum. They had a doubling time of 3 days, reached confluency at 10 days and did not exhibit contact inhibition. Cultures were maintained up to 22 days. Characterization of the cells was achieved by electron microscopy, analysis of myosin in cell extracts and assessment of hormone sensitivity. The cells were found to contain myofilaments, characteristic of smooth muscle. A high content of myosin (6--13%) was demonstrated on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis: this was confirmed by ATPase activity assay. Cells responded to estradiol stimulation by increased protein synthesis, and bound [3H]estradiol in a specific and saturable way. These results suggest that myometrial cells grown in primary culture should provide a useful model for studying the hormonal control of contractile protein synthesis.

The Ca-regulatory system in squid mantle muscle was studied. The findings were as follows. (a) Squid mantle myosin B (squid myosin B) was Ca-sensitive, and its Ca-sensitivity was unaffected by addition of a large amount of rabbit skeletal myosin (skeletal myosin) or rabbit skeletal F-actin (skeletal F-actin). (b) Squid myosin was prepared from the mantle muscle. It showed a heavy chain component and two light chain components in the SDS-gel electrophoretic pattern: the molecular weights of the latter two were 17,000 and 15,000. Actomyosin reconstituted from squid myosin and skeletal (or squid) actin showed Ca-sensitivity in superprecipitation and Mg-ATPase assays. EDTA- treatment had no effect on the Ca-sensitivity of squid myosin. (c) Squid mantle actin (squid actin) was prepared by the method of Spudich and Watt. Hybrid actomyosin reconstituted by using the pure squid actin preparation with skeletal myosin showed no Ca-sensitivity in Mg-ATPase assay, whereas that reconstituted using crude squid actin showed marked Ca-sensitivity. The crude squid actin contained four protein components which were capable of associating with F-actin in 0.1 M KCl, 1 mM MgCl2 and 20 mM Tris-maleate (pH7.5). (d) Native tropomyosin was prepared from squid mantle muscle, and it conferred Ca-sensitivity on skeletal actomyosin as well as on a hybrid actomyosin reconstituted from squid actin and skeletal myosin. (e) Squid native tropomyosin was separated into troponin and tropomyosin fractions by placing it in 0.4 M LiCl at pH 4.7. The troponin fraction was further purified by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Squid troponin thus obtained was different in mobility from rabbit skeletal or carp dorsal troponin; three bands of squid troponin corresponded to molecular weights of 52,000, 28,000, and 24,000 daltons. It could confer Ca-sensitivity in the presence of tropomyosin on skeletal actomyosin as well as on a hybrid reconstituted from squid actin and skeletal myosin. (f) Squid myosin B, and two hybrid actomyosins were compared as regards Ca and Sr requirements for their Mg-ATPase activities. The myosin-linked regulatory system rather than the thin-filament-linked regulatory system was predominant in squid myosin B. Squid myosin B required higher Ca2+ and Sr2+ concentrations for Mg-ATPase activity; half-maximal activation of Mg-ATPase was obtained at 0.8 micron Ca2+ and 28 micron Sr2+ with skeletal myosin B, and at 2.5 micron Ca2+ and 140 micron Sr2+ with squid myosin B.

ATP-induced transport by fractions of frog gastric microsomes prepared either by density gradient centrifugation of by free flow electrophoresis were K+ dependent and hence considered due to a K+-activated ATPase. Significant activity of this enzyme was, however, only found in the anodic peak of the free flow electrophoretic separation, which in addition to separating transporting from non-transporting particles, also separated membranes containing a phosphorylatable peptide (Mr=105 000) region as the major peptide on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis from those containing a peptide (Mr=44 000) on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. H+ uptake, measured either by acridine orange or 3,3'-diethyloxadicarbocyanine + tetrachlorosalicylanilide absorbance changes was dependent on K+ intravesicularly. Using 86Rb+, active extrusion of the cation followed ATP addition. SCN-, an inhibitor of acid secretion did not affect the latter, but blocked signals due to H+ uptake, in contrast to mammalian preparations.
