摘要: Contraction of glycerinated porcine carotid artery smooth muscle in response to calcium (20 microM), calmodulin (10 and MgATP was associated with phosphorylation the 20,000-dalton myosin light chain (LC20) an average stoichiometry 1.47 mol PO4/mol LC20. Tryptic chymotryptic phosphopeptide maps mono- diphosphorylated forms LC20 purified from skinned muscles demonstrated presence a single all cases. Phosphoamino acid analysis indicated that monophosphorylated form contained primarily phosphoserine, whereas both phosphoserine phosphothreonine. Thiophosphorylation by adenosine 5'-O-(thiotriphosphate) resulted incorporation 1 thiophosphate into phosphoserine. Thiophosphorylated could be subsequently phosphorylated at threonine residue 1.7 incubation MgATP, calcium, calmodulin. The extent multiple site dependent upon ionic strength free Mg2+ concentration bath; increasing either (0.07-0.15 M) or [Mg2+] (1-20 mM) lower stoichiometries phosphorylation. effect on contraction examined which were seqentially serine followed threonine.
