摘要
It is known for smooth muscle myosin that while acto-HMM ATPase activity is regulated by phosphorylation, acto-S-l ATPase activity is not regulated. To clarify the heavy chain structure required for the regulation, smooth muscle myosin containing 7 different lengths of the S-2 portion were expressed in Sf9 insect cells using Baculovirus expression system. Myosin containing longer than 991 residues of heavy chain formed a stable two-headed structure while myosin with shorter than 944 residues of heavy chain formed a single-headed structure, indicating that the residues Gln(945)-Asp(991) are critical for the fomation of the two-headed structure. The actin activated ATPase activity of myosin mutants having a two-headed structure was activated by phosphorylation while that of myosin mutants that failed to form the two-headed structure was completely independent of phosphorylation. These results suggest that the two-headed structure is critical for the phosphorylation-dependent regulation.
