Ca2+ regulation of molluscan actomyosin adenosine triphosphatase is known to be associated with the myosin molecule. Sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, however, also suggests the possible presence of troponin, a thin-filament-linked Ca2+-regulatory complex. In the present study, scallop troponin and tropomyosin were prepared and complexed with rabbit actin; the resulting synthetic thin filaments form a Ca2+-dependent actomyosin adenosine triphosphatase with Ca2+-insensitive rabbit myosin, indicating that the troponin in scallops is potentially functional. Scallop troponin I was isolated and mixed with chicken troponin C and troponin T, forming a functional hybrid troponin complex, indicating that scallop and vertebrate troponins may act by a common mechanism. Densitometry of sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gels reveals that in synthetic thin filaments there are larger amounts of troponin than are present in native thin filaments. Amounts present in the intact muscle were not determined.

1. The CNBr digest of troponin C from rabbit fast skeletal muscle was shown to possess many of the functional properties of the whole troponin C molecule. 2. A peptide corresponding to residues 83-134 was isolated, which forms a Ca(2+-dependent complex with troponin I and neutralizes the inhibition by troponin I of the Mg(2+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase of desensitized actomyosin. 3. The peptide inhibits the phosphorylation of fast-skeletal-muscle, but not cardiac-muscle, troponin I, by 3' :5'-cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. In this property it was as effective as whole skeletal-muscle troponin C when compared on a molar basis. 4. Biological activity was also present in other fractions obtained from the CNBr digest. 5. By gel filtration and affinity chromatography of the whole CNBr digest of troponin C, two peptides, one of which was identified as representing residues 83-134, were shown to form Ca(2+-dependent complexes with troponin I. 6. The significance of these findings for the mechanism of interaction of troponin C and troponin I is discussed.

An inhibitory protein for Mg2+-activated actomyosin ATPase from rabbit skeletal muscle was prepared from frozen chicken gizzard and purified by DEAE-Sephadex chromatography and gel filtration. 2. The inhibition by this protein was released by the addition of skeletal muscle troponin C and was independent of gizzard tropomyosin. 3. Localization of the inhibitory protein in gizzard muscle tissue and gizzard thin filaments was demonstrated by immunohistological techniques and immunodiffusion tests.

1. A troponin C-like protein was prepared from frozen chicken gizzard by preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and its apparent molecular weight was estimated to be about 15,500 daltons. 2. In urea gel electrophoresis, the mobility of the troponin C-like protein increased slightly in the presence of Ca2+, like that of skeletal muscle troponin C. On the other hand, the mobility of the the troponin C-like protein in glycerol gel electrophoresis, unlike that of skeletal muscle troponin C, was significantly decreased by Ca2+. 3. In alkaline gel electrophoresis, the troponin C-like protein formed a Ca2+-dependent complex with troponin I or troponin T from skeletal muscle. 4. The troponin C-like protein could neutralize the inhibitory effect of skeletal muscle troponin I on the Mg2+-activated ATPase of actomyosin from rabbit skeletal muscle, but could not confer Ca2+-sensitivity on the actomyosin in the presence of troponin I and troponin T from skeletal muscle.

1. A series of defined peptides which span the complete sequence were produced from troponin I isolated from white skeletal muscle of the rabbit. 2. Two peptides, CF1 (residues 64-133) and CN4 (residues 96-117) inhibited the Mg2+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase of desensitized actomyosin. This inhibition was potentiated by tropomyosin and the Mg2+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase of desensitized actomyosin. This inhibition, unlike that of troponin I and peptides derived from it, was not potentiated by tropomyosin. 4. The most active inhibitor, peptide CN4, was 45-75% as effective as troponin I when compared on a molar basis. The inhibitory peptide, CN4, and also whole troponin I were shown by affinity chromatography to interact specifically with actin. 5. A strong interaction with troponin C was demonstrated with peptide CF2 (residues 1-47), from the N-terminal region of troponin I. Somewhat weaker interactions were shown with peptides CN5 (residues 1-21) and with the inhibitory peptide CN4. 6. The significance of these interactions for the mechanisms of action of troponin I is discussed.

When cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase was purified from isolated smooth muscle layer of human aorta by DEAE-cellulose column chromatography, separated cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activity was markedly stimulated in the presence of 10-20 micrometer of Ca2+ by a protein modulator which has similar physicochemical properties to troponin C. Synthetic compound, N-(6-aminohexl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalensulfonamide, which produced relaxations of arteries contracted by prostaglandin F2alpha or KCl was found to inhibit selectively this Ca2+-dependent cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase. This compound produced inhibition of superprecipitation of myosin B system obtained from mouse skeletal muscle and also inhibited adenosine triphosphatase activity of myosin B. Our data suggest that calcium is involved through a protein modulator in cyclic nucleotide metabolism of vascular smooth muscle and that the calcium-dependent protein modulator probably participates in the regulation of contractile response of vascular smooth muscle by affecting actomyosin ATPase activity.

The effect of medium Ca2+ concentration upon the concentration and the rate of synthesis of muscle proteins was investigated in chicken pectoralis muscle cultures. There is an easily identifiable class of muscle protein which includes the Ca2+-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum, myosin, troponin C, ATP : creatine phosphotransferase, muscle specific actin, tropomysin 1 and 2, and muscle hemagglutinin, which show a large increase in concentration during normal development. The increased synthesis of these proteins was inhibited, without inhibition of cell proliferation, in culture media of relatively low Ca2+ concentration, 0.05--0.3 mM, where fusion was prevented. Similar medium Ca2+ concentration was required for the expression of all these proteins, suggesting their coordinate regulation. The proteins are denoted as 'calcium-modulated proteins'. The increased Ca2+ transport activity of sarcoplasmic reticulum in cultured chicken pectoralis muscle cells during development at 1.8 mM medium calcium concentration represents de novo synthesis of the Ca2+ transport ATPase, as shown by immunoprecipitation, active site labeling and direct identification of the Ca2+ transport ATPase on two-dimensional gel electropherograms of whole muscle homogenates. The concentration and the turnover rate of the majority of the muscle proteins is not affected significantly by medium Ca2+ concentration between 0.06 and 1.8 mM. It is proposed that increase in cytoplasmic free Ca2+ concentration during fusion plays a central role in the regulation of the synthesis of calcium-modulated proteins.

The interaction of myosin and actin is by intracellular Ca2+ concentration, which in turn is controlled by the sarcoplasmic reticulum. In muscle--including cardiac muscle--of vertebrates, and some invertebrates, the site of Ca2+ control is in the thin, actin-containing filaments. These filaments contain tropomyosin and troponin; the latter is a complex of three subunits. When Ca2+ combines with troponin C, the Ca-binding subunit, a shift occurs in the position of tropomyosin that makes it possible for the myosin heads to bind to actin. This process is inhibited by a conformational change in troponin C, resulting in the release of the troponin complex from one of the binding sites on the thin filament. This process exhibits cooperative aspects which have been analyzed in terms of the Ca-binding process and the effect of Ca2+ on actomyosin ATPase activity.

We describe the effects of various cardioactive compounds on the Ca++ activation of force production and ATPase activity in isolated contractile structures from mammalian heart and, in some cases, skeletal muscle. We show that: 1) the Ca++ sensitizing activity of APP 201-533 does not discriminate between cardiac and skeletal muscle and is, therefore, not based on interaction with cardiac troponin I phosphorylation at serine 20. 2) compounds like trifluoperazine or bepridil, both known to interact with calmodulin, increase the Ca++ sensitivity of the contractile structures of the heart, in high concentrations, as expected from the high natural abundance of troponin C. 3) DPI 201-106 interacts with calmodulin (and presumably with the structurally closely related troponin C) in the microM concentration range. Its high Ca(++)-sensitizing potency in skinned cardiac muscle and a certain sensitivity of this effect to the detergent Triton X-100 suggest accumulation of the hydrophobic compound in the myofibrillar protein lattice.

Troponin C was isolated from the skeletal muscle of bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana), and its relative molecular mass was estimated to be 18,000 by SDS/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In its amino acid composition, bullfrog troponin C was similar to that of the frog (Rana esculenta) but different from that of rabbit. Its ultraviolet spectrum was consistent with its amino acid composition. The ultraviolet difference spectrum of the Ca(2+)-loaded form vs. the metal-free form indicated that the single Tyr residue and some Phe residues in the bullfrog troponin C molecule were affected by the conformational change associated with Ca2+ binding. On electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel in 14 mM Tris and 90 mM glycine, the metal-free and Mg(2+)-loaded forms migrated slower than the Ca(2+)-loaded form. The property is shared by rabbit troponin C but not parvalbumins or calmodulin. The ATPase activity of CDTA-treated myofibrils reconstituted with bullfrog troponin C showed the same Ca(2+)- and Sr(2+)-sensitivity as that of those reconstituted with rabbit troponin C. Bullfrog troponin C is, thus, physiologically the same as rabbit troponin C, in spite of several marked differences in their physicochemical properties.
