Myosin light-chain kinase of smooth muscle stimulates myosin ATPase activity without phosphorylating myosin light chain.
Myosin light-chain kinase (MLCK) of smooth muscle is multifunctional, being composed of N-terminal actin-binding domain, central kinase domain, and C-terminal myosin-binding domain. The kinase domain is the best characterized; this domain activates the interaction of smooth-muscle myosin with actin by phosphorylating the myosin light chain. We have recently shown that the Met-1-Pro-41 sequence ...
متن کاملPhosphorylation of myosin regulatory light chain controls myosin head conformation in cardiac muscle
The effect of phosphorylation on the conformation of the regulatory light chain (cRLC) region of myosin in ventricular trabeculae from rat heart was determined by polarized fluorescence from thiophosphorylated cRLCs labelled with bifunctional sulforhodamine (BSR). Less than 5% of cRLCs were endogenously phosphorylated in this preparation, and similarly low values of basal cRLC phosphorylation w...
متن کاملEstradiol modulates myosin regulatory light chain phosphorylation and contractility in skeletal muscle of female mice.
Impairment of skeletal muscle function has been associated with changes in ovarian hormones, especially estradiol. To elucidate mechanisms of estradiol on skeletal muscle strength, the hormone's effects on phosphorylation of the myosin regulatory light chain (pRLC) and muscle contractility were investigated, hypothesizing an estradiol-specific beneficial impact. In a skeletal muscle cell line, ...
متن کاملAbnormal cardiac structure and function in mice expressing nonphosphorylatable cardiac regulatory myosin light chain 2.
A role for myosin phosphorylation in modulating normal cardiac function has long been suspected, and we hypothesized that changing the phosphorylation status of a cardiac myosin light chain might alter cardiac function in the whole animal. To test this directly, transgenic mice were created in which three potentially phosphorylatable serines in the ventricular isoform of the regulatory myosin l...
متن کاملIdentification of cardiac-specific myosin light chain kinase.
Two myosin light chain (MLC) kinase (MLCK) proteins, smooth muscle (encoded by mylk1 gene) and skeletal (encoded by mylk2 gene) MLCK, have been shown to be expressed in mammals. Even though phosphorylation of its putative substrate, MLC2, is recognized as a key regulator of cardiac contraction, a MLCK that is preferentially expressed in cardiac muscle has not yet been identified. In this study,...
