The binding of myosin heads on heavy meromyosin and assembled myosin to actin in the presence of nucleotides. Measurements by the proteolytic rates method

AM Duong and E Reisler

The initial rates of tryptic digestion at the 50/20-kDa junction in myosin and myosin subfragment 1 were determined for the free proteins and their complexes with actin in the presence and absence of MgATP. The proteolytic reactions were carried out at 24 degrees C and under ionic strength conditions (mu) adjusted to 35, 60, and 130 mM. The percentages of myosin heads and myosin subfragment 1 bound to actin in the presence of MgATP were calculated from the rates of proteolysis for each set of digestion experiments. In all cases, the myosin heads in the synthetic filaments showed greater binding to actin than myosin subfragment 1. This binding difference was most prominent (3-fold) at mu = 130 mM. The binding of heavy meromyosin (HMM) to actin in the presence of MgADP was measured at 4 degrees C by ultracentrifugation and the proteolytic rates methods. Ultracentrifugation experiments determined the fraction of HMM molecules bound to actin in the presence of MgADP, whereas the proteolytic measurements yielded the information on the fraction of HMM heads bound to actin. Taken together, these measurements show that a significant fraction of HMM is bound to actin with only one head in the presence of MgADP under ionic conditions of 180 and 280 mM.
