Irrigation of Rabbit “Ghost” Single Fibers with Myosin from Normal and PSE Porcine Muscle
نویسندگان
چکیده
The organization and quantity of myosin irrigation into myosin-free “ghost” fibers were compared between normal and PSE myosin. Considerable amounts of myosin were incorporated into the “ghost” fibers for both normal and PSE myosin. Elec t ron microscopic s tudy showed tha t the myosin f i laments were formed a l l over the thin filaments after the irrigation. However, there was almost no difference in the quant i ty and f i lamentogenes is of the incorpora ted myosin in to the “ghost” fibers between normal and PSE myosin.

Histopathologic Changes of Extraocular Mus-cle Fibers after Injection of Botulinum Toxin
Background: Use of botulinum toxin is becoming a popular way in treatment of some forms of strabismus.To evaluate the morphological changes in the orbital surface layer muscles of the rabbit eye following a single injection of botulinum toxin. Methods: 10 white Dutch rabbits weighing 2–3 kg received either 10 units (group 1; n=5) or 20 units (group 2; n=5) of botulinum toxin into the superior r...
متن کاملLactate dehydrogenase-induced conformational changes of F-actin in myosin-free ghost single fibres.
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 dehy...
متن کاملEffects of pale, normal, and dark chicken breast meat on microstructure, extractable proteins, and cooking of marinated fillets.
The effects of chicken breast meat lightness value (L*) on microstructure, protein extraction, and marinating and tumbling was investigated. Pale soft, and exudative (PSE) meat (L* = 57.7, pH 5.72) showed significantly lower salt soluble protein extraction with less heavy myosin chains compared with dark, firm, and dry (DFD) meat (L* = 44.8, pH 6.27). The PSE meat showed larger intercellular sp...
متن کاملDifferential gene expression between normal and pale, soft, and exudative turkey meat.
In response to high consumer demand, turkeys have been intensively selected for rapid growth rate and breast muscle mass and conformation. The success in breeding selection has coincided with an increasing incidence of pale, soft, and exudative (PSE) meat defect, especially in response to heat stress. We hypothesized that the underlying mechanism responsible for the development of PSE meat aris...
متن کاملMuscle metabolism and PSE pork
Pale, soft, and exudative (PSE) pork is primarily caused by an accelerated rate of postmortem glycolysis resulting in low muscle pH while carcass temperature remains high, thus causing protein denaturation. Numerous factors influence the rate of postmortem metabolism and may be responsible for the rapid pH decline characteristic of PSE pork during the 1st h postmortem. Release of high levels of...
