Preparations of ATP from equine muscle contained an inhibitor of dynein Mg2+-activated ATPase. The inhibitory material was separated from the ATP by molecular sieve filtration. The several molecular species of dynein extracted from three different axonemal sources were all inhibited; myosin ATPase was not. With increasing amounts of inhibitor the inhibition did not go to completion but reached a plateau when the rate had been reduced to 1/5 the uninhibited rate. A plot of 1/[S] against 1/v at several inhibitor concentrations yielded parallel lines. There was little inhibition of dynein ATPase when Mg2+ was replaced by Ca2+. The inhibitor appeared slightly smaller in molecular size than ATP, had anionic character, and was not adsorbed to charcoal.

The Mg2+-dependent ATPase (adenosine 5'-triphosphatase) mechanism of myosin and subfragment 1 prepared from frog leg muscle was investigated by transient kinetic technique. The results show that in general terms the mechanism is similar to that of the rabbit skeletal-muscle myosin ATPase. During subfragment-1 ATPase activity at 0-5 degrees C pH 7.0 and I0.15, the predominant component of the steady-state intermediate is a subfragment-1-products complex (E.ADP.Pi). Binary subfragment-1-ATP (E.ATP) and subfragment-1-ADP (E.ADP) complexes are the other main components of the steady-state intermediate, the relative concentrations of the three components E.ATP, E.ADP.Pi and E.ADP being 5.5:92.5:2.0 respectively. The frog myosin ATPase mechanism is distinguished from that of the rabbit at 0-5 degrees C by the low steady-state concentrations of E.ATP and E.ADP relative to that of E.ADP.Pi and can be described by: E + ATP k' + 1 in equilibrium k' - 1 E.ATP k' + 2 in equilibrium k' - 2 E.ADP.Pi k' + 3 in equilibrium k' - 3 E.ADP + Pi k' + 4 in equilibrium k' - 4 E + ADP. In the above conditions successive forward rate constants have values: k' + 1, 1.1 X 10(5)M-1.S-1; k' + 2 greater than 5s-1; k' + 3, 0.011 s-1; k' + 4, 0.5 s-1; k'-1 is probably less than 0.006s-1. The observed second-order rate constants of the association of actin to subfragment 1 and of ATP-induced dissociation of the actin-subfragment-1 complex are 5.5 X 10(4) M-1.S-1 and 7.4 X 10(5) M-1.S-1 respectively at 2-5 degrees C and pH 7.0. The physiological implications of these results are discussed.

A plasma-membrane fraction was isolated from a post-nuclear extract of human neutrophils by centrifugation through a linear sucrose density gradient. This fraction exhibited a Ca2+-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity that could be differentiated from mitochondrial or myosin ATPase and from plasma-membrane Mg2+-dependent ATPase. When assayed in the presence of [gamma-32P]ATP, the Ca2+-dependent ATPase reaction resulted in the formation of an acid-resistant hydroxylamine-sensitive bond between the gamma-[32P] phosphate group and a membrane protein subunit with an apparent mol.wt. of 135000. Half-maximal activating effect of Ca2+ was found at 82nM and 0.18 microM for the ATPase and the formation of the 32P-membrane complex respectively. Generation of the phosphorylated product attained the steady state at 0 degrees C by about 30s, and was rapidly reversed by ADP. These results suggest that the Ca2+-activated ATPase reaction occurs through the formation of a phosphoprotein intermediate, similar to that described for some Ca2+-dependent ATPase enzymes associated with Ca2+ transport. The possibility thus exists that the neutrophil Ca2+-dependent ATPase catalyses a process of Ca2+ extrusion from the cell, thereby participating in the regulation of several Ca2+-dependent neutrophil functions.

This review summarizes the results obtained by biochemical and physiological studies on the functional implications of the two-headed structure of the myosin molecule. Our nonidentical two-head hypothesis of myosin is supported by biochemical studies on myosin ATPase. The reaction mechanism of the Mg2+-ATPase reaction catalyzed by one head of the myosin molecule is shown to be different from that catalyzed by the other head, and the reaction intermediate, MPADP, is produced in head B but not in head A. Evidence for differences in the chemical structures of the two heads of myosin is also presented. The myosin preparation is shown to be a mixture of homodimers with respect to its g-chain composition, but every homodimer has the non-identical two heads, B and A. Furthermore, the molecular mechanism for acceleration of the Mg2+-ATPase reaction by F-actin and that for its control by Ca2+ ions and Mg2+-ATP are discussed, based on the nonidentical two-head hypothesis of the myosin molecule. It was shown that the formation and decomposition of the key intermediate, A(B)MPADP are required for tension development and shortening. One cycle of ATP hydrolysis by crossbridges synchronously initiated by a rapid stretch or a sudden release of a slow stretch, indicating that the probability of dissociation of a crossbridge by its interaction with ATP depends on its angular position. It is also demonstrated that rotation of the base of nucleoside triphosphate about the glycosyl bond is essential for formation of MPXDP from M2XTP, as well as for muscle contraction. Based on these biochemical and physiological studies on the movement of the myosin head in muscle contraction, a molecular mechanism for muscle contraction is proposed.

Myosin isolated under phosphorylation conditions, showed an additional band of phosphorylated light chain. In the case of cardiac myosin, LC2 is the phosphorylated light chain whereas in skeletal myosin, it is the 18,000 dalton component known as DTNB light chain. There are no differences in K+-EDTA and Ca2+ activated myosin ATPase of cardiac and skeletal of control and phosphorylated myosins. Our experiments showed that the rat heart and skeletal muscle myosins isolated under phosphorylating conditions exhibited high phosphate content which is associated with higher actin activated Mg2+ ATPase activity of myosin as compared to control. Control myosin phosphorylated using myosin light chain kinase and Ca2+ also showed high actin activated myosin ATPase activity. Beef heart myosin isolated in the presence of phosphate buffer, also exhibited a higher level of phosphate followed by an increase in actin activation as compared to myosin isolated in the absence of phosphate buffer. All these experimental data suggest that there is a direct relationship between actin activation and the amount of phosphate incorporated as a result of phosphorylation.

The conformations of the transitory intermediates of the myosin ATPase occurring during the hydrolytic cycle, enzyme without ligand, enzyme-substrate complex and two different forms of enzyme-product complex, have been characterized in terms of numbers and classes of reactive thiol groups based on incorporation of radioactively labeled alkylation reagent. The techniques employed allowed this to be done under steady-state conditions in the presence of high ligand concentrations on intact myosin from rabbit fast skeletal muscles at low ionic strength where the protein is in the gel state as it is in muscle. The binding of a divalent cation (Mg2+ or Ca2+) nucleotide complex exposes thiol-1 as well as thiol-2 groups. The long-lived ATPase intermediate occurring at temperatures above 10 degrees C adopts the same conformation with Mg2+ and Ca2+ ions. This intermediate does not protect the thiol-1 and thiol-2 groups but exposes a number of thiol-3 groups which seem to be located distant from the active site. The conformation of the intermediate prevailing in the presence of ATP changes with lowering temperature below 10 degrees C and is identical with that found in the presence of ADP at 0 degree C indicating a change in the rate-limiting step of the hydrolytic cycle. In the absence of divalent cations no such temperature-dependent change in conformation was observed. Evaluation of the activation entropies shows that the structure of the long-lived intermediate occurring above 10 degrees C in the presence of Mg2+ ions goes through a transformation from low to high order at around 20 degrees C. In the case of the monovalent-cation-stimulated ATPase a constant activation energy of around 70 kJ/mol, typical of many enzyme reactions, was found over the entire temperature range from 0--35 degrees C.

When studying enzymic and fluorescence properties of myosin and DTNB-treated myosin in the presence of K+, Na+, Li+, NH4+, Ca2+ and Mg2+ cations the following results were obtained. By the intrinsic protein fluorescence techniques no essential structural changes of myosin molecule at the dissociation of the DTNB light chain and activation myosin ATPase in the presence of different cations were found. The decrease of K+-EDTA-, the increase of Mg2+-activated and the stability of Ca2+-activated myosin ATPase may be the result of the modification of SH1 or SH2 sulfhydryl groups when treating the DTNB myosin in our conditions. The different level of decrease of the K+- and NH4+-activated myosin. ATPase may be explained by the fact, that myosin sulfhydryl groups have different effects on the activation of its ATPase by these cations.

1. Experiments were carried out to examine the biochemical changes, such as contractile protein biochemistry and membrane bound enzyme alterations associated with skeletal muscles of myd/myd. 2. Our studies demonstrate that there was a progressive decline in myofibrillar ATPase activity, and this decrease is greatest in 30 weeks old animals of myd/myd as compared to controls. 3. The proteolytic activity of myofibrils isolated from myd/myd was significantly higher than controls. 4. There was no significant difference in Ca2+ ATPase activity of myosin and actin-activated myosin ATPase activity of myd/myd and their controls. 5. Mg2+ ATPase and Na(+)+K(+)-ATPase of myodystrophic SL showed significant increase compared to controls. 6. Isoproterenol stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was significantly lower in the SL of dystrophic mice compared to controls. 7. GTP+isoproterenol stimulate adenylate cyclase was significantly higher in control SL and SR when compared to SL and SR isolated from myd/myd. 8. Guanylate cyclase activity was greater in myodystrophic mice both in the absence and presence of Triton X-100. cGMP and cAMP phosphodiesterase activities were greater in dystrophic mice as compared to controls. 9. These observations suggest that there are significant changes in myofibrillar ATPase, myofibrillar protease and membrane bound enzymes of myd/myd compared to control.

To determine the effects of chronic nonocclusive coronary constriction on cardiac hemodynamics, structural integrity, and contractile protein enzyme activity, the left coronary artery was narrowed in rats, and measurements of ventricular performance, magnitude, and distribution of tissue damage and myofibrillar Mg2+ and Ca2+ myosin ATPase activities were evaluated 1 month later. In the presence of coronary artery stenosis averaging 58%, three levels of involvement of global cardiac performance were identified, and the rats were divided accordingly. In the first group, only left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) was increased; in the second group, LVEDP and left ventricular +dP/dt and/or -dP/dt were affected; and in the third group, LVEDP, left ventricular +dP/dt and -dP/dt, and right ventricular end-diastolic pressure were impaired. Thus, left ventricular moderate dysfunction, severe dysfunction, and failure occurred with coronary narrowing. On a structural basis, coronary constriction resulted in an ongoing process characterized by acute myocytolytic necrosis and foci of replacement fibrosis in different stages of healing. The number of these lesion profiles in the left ventricular myocardium increased 4.7-, 4.4-, and 8.3-fold in rats with moderate dysfunction, severe dysfunction, and failure, respectively. Biochemically, Mg(2+)-ATPase activity of myofibrils increased biventricularly when moderate dysfunction was present. However, this parameter decreased with the appearance of severe dysfunction, reaching control values in ventricular failure. Ca2+ myosin ATPase activity was reduced in the left ventricle of rats with severe dysfunction and failure, whereas it was elevated in the right ventricle of rats with severe dysfunction. In conclusion, a fixed lesion of the left main coronary artery with a modest reduction in vessel luminal diameter generates a conditioned state of the heart characterized by a continuous loss of myocytes and replacement scarring, which, in combination with alterations in contractile protein enzyme activity, may be responsible for a number of abnormalities in cardiac dynamics ranging from moderate dysfunction to pump failure.

To determine the effects of chronic nonocclusive coronary constriction on cardiac hemodynamics, myocardial structure, and contractile protein enzyme activity, the left coronary artery was narrowed in rats, and measurements of ventricular pump function, extent and localization of tissue damage, and myofibrillar Mg2+ and Ca2+ myosin adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) activities were measured 3 mo later. In the presence of coronary artery stenosis averaging 56%, two different degrees of depression in global cardiac performance were identified, and the animals were divided in two groups. In the first group, left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) was increased and LV+ and/or--the first derivative of LV pressure (dP/dt) were decreased, whereas in the second group end-diastolic and peak systolic LV pressures, LV+ and -dP/dt and right ventricular dynamics were all impaired. Thus left ventricular dysfunction and failure occurred with coronary narrowing. Structurally, multiple foci of replacement fibrosis were found across the left ventricular wall, but the number of these lesion profiles was 2.6-fold larger in failing animals than in rats with cardiac dysfunction. Biochemically, Mg(2+)-ATPase activity in myofibrils and Ca2+ myosin ATPase were not altered biventricularly. On the other hand, a shift from V1 to V3 myosin isoenzymic content occurred in the failing left ventricle. In conclusion, the late impairment in ventricular pump function associated with prolonged coronary artery stenosis appears to be sustained more by the magnitude of myocardial damage than by defects in contractile protein enzyme activity.
