| Abstract | Myosin was isolated from the main pulmonary artery of swine and was phosphorylated or dephosphorylated by utilizing the endogenous kinase or phosphatase, respectively. The myosins, phosphorylated to various degrees, were purified free of kinase and phosphatase activities by gel filtration on Sepharose CL-4B agarose columns. The level of actin-activated ATPase activity was dependent upon the degree of myosin light chain phosphorylation. Fully phosphorylated myosin reconstituted with actin and tropomyosin (actin/tropomyosin = 61:1) had the highest ATPase activity (0.1 mumol of Pi/mg . min). The actin-activated ATPase activity showed maximal (60--65%) Ca2+ sensitivity at 2 mol of Ca2+ bound per mol of myosin. The actin-activated ATPase activity, Ca2+ binding, and Ca2+ sensitivity of arterial myosin were also dependent upon Mg2+ concentration. The ATPase activity was maximal at 2--3 mM Mg2+ and, at low (0.5 mM) Mg2+ concentration, the activity was only one-third of the maximal activity. Increasing the Mg2+ above 3 mM was not associated with a further increase in ATPase activity, but the Ca2+ binding and Ca2+ sensitivity decreased with increasing Mg2+ concentration. The maximal Ca2+ sensitivity was observed at 2--3 mM Mg2+, a concentration at which the myosin bound 2 mol of Ca2+/mol. Both the ATPase activity and the Ca2+ sensitivity were more remarkable when actin that contained tropomyosin was used to activate the ATPase activity. The data indicate that calcium regulates the actin-activated ATP hydrolysis not only by its effects on the phosphorylation system but also by direct binding to the myosin. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
