Primary structure of rabbit skeletal muscle troponin-T. Sequence determination of the NH2-terminal fragment CB3 and the complete sequence of troponin-T.
The amino acid sequence of CB3, the NH2-terminal fragment of troponin-T, and the alignment of all six cyanogen bromide (CB) fragments are reported. Fragment CB3, comprised of 70 residues, has eight of the nine prolines of troponin-T. As observed in other proteins of the myofibrillar system, its NH2 terminus is blocked by an acetyl group. Methionine-containing "overlap" peptides isolated from a ...
متن کاملThe cardiac-specific N-terminal region of troponin I positions the regulatory domain of troponin C.
The cardiac isoform of troponin I (cTnI) has a unique 31-residue N-terminal region that binds cardiac troponin C (cTnC) to increase the calcium sensitivity of the sarcomere. The interaction can be abolished by cTnI phosphorylation at Ser22 and Ser23, an important mechanism for regulating cardiac contractility. cTnC contains two EF-hand domains (the N and C domain of cTnC, cNTnC and cCTnC) conne...
متن کاملStructure-function studies of the amino-terminal region of bovine cardiac troponin T.
The length and amino acid sequence of the amino-terminal region of troponin T (TnT) is regulated by alternative mRNA processing in both mammals and birds. To study the function of this region, three forms of bovine cardiac TnT were compared: isoforms TnT1 and TnT2, which differ by the presence or absence of residues 15-19 and TnT 39-284. TnT 39-284 was prepared by chemical cleavage of TnT1 at C...
متن کاملAn intramolecular t-SNARE complex functions in vivo without the syntaxin NH2-terminal regulatory domain
Membrane fusion in the secretory pathway is mediated by SNAREs (located on the vesicle membrane [v-SNARE] and the target membrane [t-SNARE]). In all cases examined, t-SNARE function is provided as a three-helix bundle complex containing three approximately 70-amino acid SNARE motifs. One SNARE motif is provided by a syntaxin family member (the t-SNARE heavy chain), and the other two helices are...
متن کاملThe Diphtheria Toxin Channel-forming T Domain Translocates Its Own NH2-Terminal Region Across Planar Bilayers
The T domain of diphtheria toxin, which extends from residue 202 to 378, causes the translocation of the catalytic A fragment (residues 1-201) across endosomal membranes and also forms ion-conducting channels in planar phospholipid bilayers. The carboxy terminal 57-amino acid segment (322-378) in the T domain is all that is required to form these channels, but its ability to do so is greatly au...
