title: [The effect of phosphorylation of myosin light chains on the structural state of tropomyosin in thin filaments, decorated with heavy meromyosin].
abstract: The structural state of tropomyosin (TM) modified by 5-(iodoacetamidoethyl)-aminonaphthalene-1-sulfonate (1.5-IAEDANS) upon F-actin decoration with myosin subfragment 1 (S1) and heavy meromyosin (HMM) in glycerinated myosin- and troponin-free muscle fibers was studied. HMM preparations contained native phosphorylated myosin light chains, while S1 preparations did not. The changes in the polarized fluorescence of 1.5-IAEDANS-TM during the F-actin interaction with S1 were independent of light chains phosphorylation and Ca2+ concentration, but were dependent on these factors during the F-actin interaction with HMM. The binding of myosin heads to F-actin is supposed to initiate conformational changes in TM which are accompanied by changes in the flexibility and molecular arrangement of TM. In the presence of light chains, the structural changes in TM depend on light chains phosphorylation and Ca2+ concentration. The conformational changes in TM seem to be responsible for the mechanisms of coupling of the myosin and tropomyosin modulation system during the actin-myosin interaction in skeletal muscles.
