Effects of troponin I phosphorylation on conformational exchange in the regulatory domain of cardiac troponin C.
Conformational exchange has been demonstrated within the regulatory domain of calcium-saturated cardiac troponin C when bound to the NH2-terminal domain of cardiac troponin I-(1-80), and cardiac troponin I-(1-80)DD, having serine residues 23 and 24 mutated to aspartate to mimic the phosphorylated form of the protein. Binding of cardiac troponin I-(1-80) decreases conformational exchange for res...
متن کاملCharacterization of the Ca(2+)-triggered conformational transition in troponin C.
Troponin C is the Ca(2+)-binding subunit of troponin in vertebrate striated muscle. Binding of Ca2+ to troponin C is thought to induce a conformational change that triggers subsequent events in the initiation of muscle contraction. A molecular modeling study has proposed that, when Ca2+ binds to the N-terminal triggering sites, helices B and C separate from the helices D and A, thereby exposing...
متن کاملThe solution structure of a cardiac troponin C-troponin I-troponin T complex shows a somewhat compact troponin C interacting with an extended troponin I-troponin T component.
We have investigated the structure of the cTnC-cTnI-cTnT(198-298) calcium-saturated, ternary cardiac troponin complex by small-angle scattering with contrast variation. Shape restoration was also applied to the scattering information resulting from the deuterated cTnC subunit, the unlabeled cTnI-cTnT(198-298) subunits, and the entire complex. The experimental results and modeling indicate that ...
متن کاملFluorescent Protein-Based Ca2+ Sensor Reveals Global, Divalent Cation-Dependent Conformational Changes in Cardiac Troponin C
Cardiac troponin C (cTnC) is a key effector in cardiac muscle excitation-contraction coupling as the Ca2+ sensing subunit responsible for controlling contraction. In this study, we generated several FRET sensors for divalent cations based on cTnC flanked by a donor fluorescent protein (CFP) and an acceptor fluorescent protein (YFP). The sensors report Ca2+ and Mg2+ binding, and relay global str...
متن کاملEvolutionary and physiological variation in cardiac troponin C in relation to thermal strategies of fish.
Striated muscle contraction is initiated when troponin C (TnC) binds Ca(2+), which activates actinomyosin ATPase. We investigated (i) the variation between cardiac TnC (cTnC) primary structure within teleost fish and (ii) the pattern of TnC expression in response to temperature acclimation. There were few differences between rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares...
