The changes in conformation of F-actin induced by the binding of the glycolytic enzyme lactate dehydrogenase were studied in myosin-free single ghost muscle fibres. The formation of the lactate dehydrogenase-F-actin complex was accompanied by changes in the parameters of intrinsic (tryptophan) and extrinsic (rhodaminyl-phalloin) polarized fluorescence of ghost muscle fibre F-actin. Lactate dehydrogenase stimulated actin-activated Mg2+-ATPase of myosin subfragment 1 by 30%. F-actin of ghost fibres depressed lactate dehydrogenase activity to 20% of the initial values. It is suggested that the energy-providing mechanism is coupled with that of muscle contraction through conformational changes in F-actin.

A study was made of changes in F-actin conformation occurring in a myosin-free single ghost fibre induced by the binding of glycolytic enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LDG) to F-actin. The formation of the complex between LDG and F-actin induces changes in the parameters of the intrinsic (tryptophan) and extrinsic (rodominil--phalloin) polarized fluorescence of F-actin of the ghost muscle fibre. It is found that LDG stimulates Mg2+-ATPase of actomyosin in solution. It is assumed that the coupling of energy-providing mechanism with that of muscle contraction may be accomplished through the conformation changes in F-actin.

Changes in F-actin conformation in myosin-free single ghost fibers of rabbit skeletal muscle induced by the binding of skeletal and gizzard tropomyosin to F-actin were studied by measuring intrinsic tryptophan-polarized fluorescence of F-actin. It was found that skeletal and gizzard tropomyosin binding to F-actin initiate different conformational changes in actin filaments. Skeletal tropomyosin inhibits, while gizzard tropomyosin activates the Mg2+-ATPase activity of skeletal actomyosin. It is supposed that in muscle fibers tropomyosin modulates the ATPase activity of actomyosin via conformational changes in F-actin.

The calcium-dependent change in the tryptophan fluorescence intensity of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+- and Mg2+-ATPase was investigated using different quenching reagents. It is demonstrated that only those compounds which are bound to the enzyme (i.e., 1-(9,10-dibromomyristoyl)-sn-2-glycerophosphorylcholine and 1-(9,10-dibromostearoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylcholine) are able to decrease the amplitude of the fluorescence decrement observed after removal of calcium ions. From the position of the bromine atom within the lysophosphatidylcholines, it is concluded that the tryptophan residues involved are located in the hydrophobic part of the ATPase molecule and are in contact with the hydrocarbon chains of the phospholipids.

The fluorescence of tryptophan residues in Ca2+--Mg2+-ATPase was studied in the presence of K2PtCl4, K2PdCl4 and 5-sulpho-8-mercaptochinolinate platinum and palladium. It has been shown that both first two compounds quenched the fluorescence dye to bonding with SH-groups in ATPase active centre, but the last two compounds influence the fluorescence by bonding with tryptophan residues. The distance between the SH-groups and tryptophan in the active centre was determined by Foerster--Galanin equation and was equal to 14 +/- 3 A.

Inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) inhibits not only Mg2+-ATPase activity of myosin subfragment 1 (S-1) but abolishes also the ATP-induced increment of tryptophan fluorescence of subfragment 1. At the concentrations used (25-50 micron ATP, 12 mm PPi) these effects of PPi were abolished by substoichiometric actin concentrations (approx. 0.1 microM actin vs. approx. 1 microM S-1), where ATPase activity was barely stimulated by actin.

Antitropomyosin and anti-alpha-actinin monoclonal antibodies have been used to isolate two classes of microfilaments, i.e., tropomyosin-enriched and alpha-actinin-enriched microfilaments, respectively, from cultured chicken embryo fibroblasts. Electron microscopic studies of the isolated tropomyosin-enriched microfilaments showed periodic localization of tropomyosin along the microfilaments, with a 35-nm repeat. On the contrary, the isolated alpha-actinin-enriched microfilaments showed no obvious periodicity. Many individual alpha-actinin-enriched microfilaments with length greater than 1 micron (ranging from 1 to 10 microns) were aggregated by anti-alpha-actinin monoclonal antibodies. Both of the isolated microfilaments had the ability to activate the Mg2+-ATPase activity of skeletal muscle myosin, although different extents of activation were observed. These two classes of microfilaments also differed in their protein composition. Molar ratios of major identifiable proteins in the isolated microfilaments were alpha-actinin(dimer):actin(monomer):tropomyosin(dimer) = less than 0.02:8.06:1.00 for tropomyosin-enriched microfilaments and 0.44:13.91:1.00 for alpha-actinin-enriched microfilaments. By two-dimensional gel analysis of the isolated microfilaments, we have found seven spots which possess typical tropomyosin properties including pI 4.5, immunological cross-reaction, lack of proline and tryptophan, and heat stability. Pulse-chase experiments suggested that the assembly of microfilament-associated proteins, at least for alpha-actinin and tropomyosins, was coordinately regulated by the assembly of actin into microfilaments.

The role of the highly conserved residues in the gamma-phosphate binding site of myosin upon myosin motor function was studied. Each of five residues (Ser181, Lys185, Asn235, Ser236, and Arg238) in smooth muscle myosin was mutated. K185Q has neither a steady state ATPase nor an initial Pi burst. Although ATP and actin bind to K185Q, it is not dissociated from actin by ATP. These results indicate that the hydrolysis of bound ATP by K185Q is inhibited. S236T has nearly normal basal Mg2+-ATPase activity, initial Pi burst, ATP-induced enhancement of intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence, and ATP-induced dissociation from actin. However, the actin activation of the Mg2+-ATPase activity and actin translocation of S236T were blocked. In contrast S236A has nearly normal enzymatic properties and actin-translocating activity. These results indicate that 1) the hydroxyl group of Ser236 is not critical as an intermediary of proton transfer during the ATP hydrolysis step, and 2) the bulk of the extra methyl group of the threonine residue in S236T blocks the acceleration of product release from the active site by actin. Arg238, which interacts with Glu459 at the Switch II region, was mutated to Lys and Ile, respectively. R238K has essentially normal enzymatic activity and motility. In contrast, R238I does not hydrolyze ATP or support motility, although it still binds ATP. These results indicate that the charge interaction between Glu459 and Arg238 is critical for ATP hydrolysis by myosin. Other mutants, S181A, S181T, and N235I, showed nearly normal enzymatic and motile activity.

Analysis of the three-dimensional crystal structure of the Dictyostelium myosin motor domain revealed that the myosin head is required to bend at residues Ile-455 and Gly-457 to produce the conformation changes observed in the ternary complexes that resemble the pre- and post-hydrolysis states (Fisher, A. J., Smith, C. A., Thoden, J. B., Smith, R., Sutoh, K., Holden, H. M., and Rayment, I. (1995) Biochemistry 34, 8960-8972). Asp-454, Ile-455, and Gly-457 of smooth muscle myosin were substituted by Ala, Met, and Ala, respectively, and the mechano-enzymatic activities were determined to study the role of these residues in myosin motor function. Whereas the basal steady-state Mg2+-ATPase activity of D454A was higher than that of the wild type, the rate of the hydrolytic step is reduced approximately 2,000-fold and becomes rate-limiting. M-ATP rather than M-ADP-P is the predominant steady-state intermediate, and the initial Pi burst and the ATP-induced enhancement of intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence are absent in D454A. D454A binds actin in the absence of ATP but is not dissociated from actin by ATP. Moreover, actin inhibits rather than activates the ATPase activity; consequently, D454A does not support actin translocating activity. I455M has normal actin-activated ATPase activity, Pi burst, and ATP-induced enhancement of intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence, suggesting that the enzymatic properties are normal. However, the actin translocating activity was completely inhibited. This suggests that the side chain at Ile-455 is critical for myosin motor activity but not for relatively normal enzymatic function, which indicates an apparent uncoupling between enzymatic activity and motile function. Although G457A has normal ATP-dependent actin dissociation, ATP hydrolytic step is reduced by approximately 10(5)-fold in the presence or absence of actin; consequently, G457A does not have actin translocating activity. These results indicate the importance of these conserved residues at the hinge region for normal myosin motor function.

Coordination between the nucleotide-binding site and the converter domain of myosin is essential for its ATP-dependent motor activities. To unveil the communication pathway between these two sites, we investigated contact between side chains of Phe-482 in the relay helix and Gly-680 in the SH1-SH2 helix. F482A myosin, in which Phe-482 was changed to alanine with a smaller side chain, was not functional in vivo. In vitro, F482A myosin did not move actin filaments and the Mg2+-ATPase activity of F482A myosin was hardly activated by actin. Phosphate burst and tryptophan fluorescence analyses, as well as fluorescence resonance energy transfer measurements to estimate the movements of the lever arm domain, indicated that the transition from the open state to the closed state, which precedes ATP hydrolysis, is very slow. In contrast, F482A/G680F doubly mutated myosin was functional in vivo and in vitro. The fact that a larger side chain at the 680th position suppresses the defects of F482A myosin suggests that the defects are caused by insufficient contact between side chains of Ala-482 and Gly-680. Thus, the contact between these two side chains appears to play an important role in the coordinated conformational changes and subsequent ATP hydrolysis.
