Residues 89-100 of troponin C (C89-100) and 96-116 of
troponin I
(I96-116) interact with each other in the troponin complex (Dalgarno, D.C., Grand, R.J.A., Levine, B.A. Moir, A., J.G., Scott, G.M.M., and Perry, S.V. (1982) FEBS Lett. 150, 54-58) and are necessary for the Ca2+ sensitivity of actomyosin
ATPase
(Syska, H., Wilkinson, J.M., Grand, R.J.A., and Perry, S.V. (1976) Biochem. J. 153, 375-387 and Grabarek, Z., Drabikowski, W., Leavis, P.C., Rosenfeld, S.S., and Gergely, J. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 13121-13127). We have studied Ca2+-induced changes in the region C89-100 by monitoring the fluorescence of troponin C (TnC) labeled at Cys-98 with 5-(iodoacetamidoethyl)aminonaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid. Equilibrium titration of the labeled TnC with Ca2+ indicates that the probe is sensitive to binding to both classes of sites in free TnC as well as in its complex with TnI. When Mg2 X TnC is mixed with Ca2+ in a stopped flow apparatus, there is a rapid fluorescence increase related to Ca2+ binding to the unoccupied sites I and II followed by a slower increase (k = 9.9 s-1) that represents Mg2+-Ca2+ exchange at sites III and IV. In the TnC X TnI complex, the fast phase is much larger and the Mg2+-Ca2+ exchange at sites III and IV results in a small decrease rather than an increase in the fluorescence of the probe. The possibility is discussed that the fast change in the environment of Cys-98 upon Ca2+ binding to sites I and II may be instrumental in triggering activation of the thin filament by facilitating a contact between C89-100 and I96-116.

We determined the free energy of interaction between rabbit skeletal
troponin I
(TNI) and troponin C (TNC) at 10 degrees and 20 degrees C with fluorescently labeled proteins. The sulfhydryl probe 5-iodoacetamidoeosin (IAE) was attached to cysteine (Cys)-98 of TNC and to Cys-133 of TNI, and each of the labeled proteins was titrated with the other unlabeled protein. The association constant for formation of the complex between labeled TNC (TNC*) and TNI was 6.67 X 10(5) M-1 in 0.3 M KCl, and pH 7.5 at 20 degrees C. In the presence of bound Mg2+, the binding constant increased to 4.58 X 10(7) M-1 and in the presence of excess of Ca2+, the association constant was 5.58 X 10(9) M-1. Very similar association constants were obtained when labeled TNI was titrated with unlabeled TNC. The energetics of Ca2+ binding to TNC* and the complex TNI X TNC* were also determined at 20 degrees C. The two sets of results were used to separately determine the coupling free energy for binding TNI and Mg2+, or Ca2+ to TNC. The results yielded a total coupling free energy of -5.4 kcal. This free energy appeared evenly partitioned into the two species: TNI X TNC(Mg)2 or TNI X TNC(Ca)2, and TNI X TNC(Ca)4. The first two species were each stabilized by -2.6 kcal, with respect to the Ca2+ free TNI X TNC complex, and TNI X TNC(Ca)4 was stabilized by -2.8 kcal, respect to TNI X TNC(Ca)2 or TNI X TNC(Mg)2. The coupling free energy was shown to produce cooperatively complexes formed between TNI and TNC in which the high affinity sites were initially saturated as a function of free Ca2+ to yield TNI X TNC(Ca)4. This saturation occurred in the free Ca2+ concentration range 10(-7) to 10(-5) M. The cooperative strengthening of the linkage between TNI and TNC induced by Ca2+ binding to the Ca2+-specific sites of TNC may have a direct relationship to activation of actomyosin
ATPase
. The nature of the forces involved in the Ca2+-induced strengthening of the complex is discussed.

1. The troponin complex from skeletal muscle contains approximately 1 mol of phosphate/80000g of complex, covalently bound to the troponin T component. 2. On prolonged incubation of the troponin complex or troponin T with phosphorylase kinase the phosphate content of troponin T was increased to approx. 3mol/mol. 3. On prolonged incubation of
troponin I
with phosphorylase kinase up to 1.6mol of phosphate/mol were incorporated. 4. Phosphorylation of
troponin I
was greatly inhibited by troponin C owing to the strong interaction between these proteins. Thus in the troponin complex troponin T was the main substrate for phosphorylase kinase. The phosphorylation of isolated troponin T was also inhibited by troponin C. 5. Troponin I was phosphorylated when the troponin complex was incubated with a bovine cardiac 3':5'-cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Troponin T either in its isolated form or in the troponin complex was not phosphorylated by bovine protein kinase to any significant extent under the conditions used. 6. If the troponin complex was dephosphorylated to 0.2mol/mol, or phosphorylated up to 2.5mol/mol there was no significant effect on the ability of normal concentrations to confer Ca(2+) sensitivity on the
adenosine triphosphatase
of densensitized actomyosin.

Myelin basic proteins (MBP) interacts with F-actin resulting in the precipitation of a complex of both proteins. Electron microscope observations of this complex reveal the presence of ordered bundles of F-actin filaments similar to those obtained from F-actin and
troponin I
. In addition to the bundles, there also appear short fragments of F-actin filaments. In the presence of Ca2+ calmodulin causes a release of MBP from its complex with F-actin, accompanied by dissociation of F-actin bundles into separate filaments. Parallel to the binding of MBP to F-actin the
ATPase
activity of actomyosin is progressively reduced. This inhibition is reversed by calmodulin but only in the presence of Ca2+. Studies of the binding of S-1 to F-actin and to the F-actin-MBP complex indicate that the interaction sites for MBP and S-1 on the actin molecule are different.

Troponin was isolated from the thin filaments of ascidian smooth muscle and separated into three components by ion-exchange chromatography, the molecular weights of which were 33,000, 24,000, and 18,000, respectively. The three components were designated as troponin t (TN-T),
troponin I
(TN-I), and troponin C (TN-C) in order of molecular weight, since each component had properties similar to those of the respective components of vertebrate skeletal-muscle troponin. The ascidian troponin or the mixture of the three components conferred Ca2+-sensitivity on reconstituted rabbit actomyosin in the presence of tropomyosin. One of the characteristics of the ascidian troponin was Ca2+-dependent activation of actin-myosin interaction in collaboration with tropomyosin, whereas its inhibitory action on the actomyosin
ATPase
in the absence of Ca2+ was less remarkable. From this, it is concluded that in the ascidian smooth muscle actin-myosin interaction is regulated by an actin-linked troponin-tropomyosin system, but the ascidian troponin acts as a Ca2+-dependent activator of an actomyosin system.

A
troponin I
-like factor has been purified from pig platelet by G150 Sephadex filtration of a low ionic strength extract, acidification at pH 4.2, ion exchange on DE-52 cellulose, and affinity chromatography on calmodulin-Sepharose. This protein (Mr 17000), together with pig brain calmodulin and platelet tropomyosin, is able to participate to the reconstitution in vitro of a thin filament-like complex which modulates with 55% calcium sensitivity the platelet actin-activated Mg2+-dependent
ATPase
activity of rabbit skeletal muscle myosin.

The myofibrillar regulatory proteins, troponin-I and tropomyosin were isolated from human and bovine atria and ventricles and studied in the adult and during foetal development. A number of analytical electrophoretic procedures were employed to detect possible atrial, ventricular or foetal specific forms of these proteins. Biological activity of the regulatory protein complex during development was monitored by measuring the calcium sensitivity of the myofibrillar Mg2+ activated
ATPase
. No evidence was obtained for unique or foetal specific forms of either
troponin I
or the alpha and beta subunits of tropomyosin. Although the atria and ventricles possess markedly different contractile properties, no difference was observed between the two chambers at any developmental stage in the relative amounts of alpha and beta tropomyosin present. However, the relative amount of beta tropomyosin increased by 50% in both atria and ventricles during the transition from foetus to adult. A strong inverse correlation existed (r = -0.92) between beta tropomyosin content and heart rate in different species and at different developmental stages in both cardiac chambers. The relative invariance of tropomyosin and
troponin I
forms in the myocardium was reflected in the high and constant level of calcium sensitivity of myofibrillar Mg2+
ATPase
retained in the atria and ventricles throughout development. The implications of these results in relation to control of cardiac contraction are discussed.

1. Hybrid or reconstituted troponins were prepared from troponin components of rabbit skeletal muscle and porcine cardiac muscle and their effect on the actomyosin
ATPase
activity was measured at various concentrations of Ca2+ or Sr2+. The Ca2+ concentration required for half-maximum activation of actomyosin
ATPase
with troponin containing cardiac troponin I was slightly higher than that with troponin containing skeletal
troponin I
. The Sr2+ concentration required for half-maximum activation of actomyosin
ATPase
with troponin containing skeletal troponin C was higher than that with troponin containing cardiac troponin C. 2. Reconstituted cardiac troponin was phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. The Ca2+ sensitivity of actomyosin
ATPase
with cardiac troponin decreased upon phosphorylation of
troponin I
; maximum
ATPase
activity was depressed and the Ca2+ concentration at half-maximum activation increased. On the other hand, phosphorylation of
troponin I
did not change Sr2+ sensitivity. 3. The inhibitory effect of cardiac troponin I on the actomyosin
ATPase
activity was neutralized by increasing the amount of brain calmodulin at high Ca2+ and Sr2+ concentrations but not at low concentrations. 4.
ATPase
activity of actomyosin with a mixture of
troponin I
and calmodulin was assayed at various concentrations of Ca2+ or Sr2+. The Ca2+ or Sr2+ sensitivity of actomyosin
ATPase
containing skeletal
troponin I
was approximately the same as that of actomyosin
ATPase
containing cardiac troponin I. Phosphorylation of cardiac troponin I did not change the Ca2+ sensitivity of the
ATPase
. 5. The Ca2+ or Sr2+ concentration required for half-maximum activation of actomyosin
ATPase
with
troponin I
-T-calmodulin was higher than that of actomyosin
ATPase
with the mixture of
troponin I
and calmodulin. Maximum
ATPase
activity was lower than that with the mixture of
troponin I
and calmodulin.

Equilibrium-binding studies at 4 degrees C show that, in the instance of crayfish, troponin C contains only one Ca-binding site with an affinity in the range of physiological free [CA2+] (K = 2 X 10(5) M-1). At physiological levels of Mg2+, this site does not bind Mg2+. In the complexes of troponin C-
troponin I
, troponin and troponin-tropomyosin, the regulatory Ca-specific site exhibits a 10- to 20-fold higher affinity (K = 2-4 X 10(6) M-1). The latter affinity is reduced to that of troponin C upon incorporation of the troponin-tropomyosin complex into the actin filament (regulated actin), as determined at 4 degrees C by the double isotope technique. The Ca-binding constant is again shifted to a higher value (7 X 10(6) M-1) when regulated actin is associated with nucleotide-free myosin. Both crayfish myofibrils and rabbit actomyosin regulated by crayfish troponin-tropomyosin display a steep rise in
ATPase
activity with [Ca2+]. Comparison of the pCa/
ATPase
relationship and the Ca-binding properties at 25 degrees C for the crayfish troponin-regulated actomyosin indicates that while the threshold [Ca2+] for activation corresponds to the range of [Ca2+] where the regulatory site in its low affinity state (K = 1 X 10(5) M-1) starts to bind Ca2+ significantly, full activation is reached at [Ca2+] for which the Ca-specific site in its high affinity state (K = 3 X 10(6) M-1) approaches saturation. These results suggest that, in the actomyosin
ATPase
cycle, there are at least two calcium-activated states of regulated actin (one low and one high), the high affinity state being induced by interactions of myosin with actin in the cycle.

The aim of experiments described here was to test whether deactivation of cardiac myofibrils in acidic pH is associated with decreases in amounts of calcium bound to myofilament troponin. We determined the amounts of myofibrillar bound calcium attributable to troponin, from measurements of calcium binding to myofibrils and to myosin and from determination of the troponin C content of the myofibrillar preparations (0.40 nmol troponin C/mg protein). In measurements done at 2 mM free magnesium, 2 mM (magnesium-adenosine triphosphate, ionic strength 0.12, 22 degrees C, the pCa50 (-log of the half maximally activating molar free calcium) for myofibrillar magnesium-
adenosine triphosphatase
activity was 5.87 at pH 7.0, 5.49 at pH 6.5, and 5.04 at pH 6.2. This change in calcium sensitivity of myofibrillar magnesium-
adenosine triphosphatase
activity was present whether or not ethyleneglycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N, N'-tetraacetic acid, was used to buffer the free calcium and whether or not myofibrillar
troponin I
had been phosphorylated by cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase. However, the change in pCa50 of myofibrillar
adenosine triphosphatase
activity induced by acidic pH, was greater when free magnesium was reduced from 2.0 to 0.05 mM, and less when free magnesium was increased from 2.0 mM to 10 and 15 mM. The change in pCa50 with acidic pH was less if the ionic strength was reduced from 0.12 to 0.035 M. The magnesium-
adenosine triphosphatase
activity of troponin/tropomyosin-free myofibrils was independent of pCa and unaffected by a reduction of pH from 7.0 to 6.5. The affinity of myofibrillar troponin C for calcium decreased as pH was reduced from 7.0 to 6.5 and to 6.2 with and without ethyleneglycolbis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N'-tetraacetic acid, and in a manner predicted from the effect of acidic pH on pCa50 for myofibrillar activation. Our results are consistent with the idea that at least part of the mechanism responsible for deactivation of the
adenosine triphosphatase
activity of cardiac myofilaments in acidic pH is a reduction in the affinity of myofibrillar troponin C for calcium.
