Interaction of Actin 1–28 with Myosin and Troponin I and the Importance of These Interactions to Muscle Regulation

  • Chapter

Abstract

Muscle contraction involves the regulation of the interaction between actin and myosin (acto-myosin) by the regulatory protein complex, troponin-tropomyosin (Tn-TM). The troponin (Tn) subunits (TnC, TnI, TnT) interact with each other and work in concert with actin-TM to produce conformational changes which alter the acto-myosin interaction. When F-actin binds the myosin head, activation of the ATP hydrolysis rate occurs causing an increase in the release of Pi, thereby increasing the rate of cross-bridge cycling.
