Popis: | Troponin I (TnI) peptides (TnI inhibitory peptide residues 104–115, Ip; TnI regulatory peptide resides 1–30, TnI1–30), recombinant Troponin C (TnC) and Troponin I mutants were used to study the structural and functional relationship between TnI and TnC. Our results reveal that an intact central D/E helix in TnC is required to maintain the ability of TnC to release the TnI inhibition of the acto-S1-TM ATPase activity. Ca2+-titration of the TnC-TnI1–30 complex was monitored by circular dichroism. The results show that binding of TnI1–30 to TnC caused a three-folded increase in Ca2+ affinity in the high affinity sites (III and IV) of TnC. Gel electrophoresis and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) studies demonstrate that the sequences of the N- and C-terminal regions of TnI interact in an anti-parellel fashion with the corresponding N- and C-domain of TnC. Our results also indicate that the N- and C-terminal domains of TnI which flank the TnI inhibitory region (residues 104 to 115) play a vital role in modulating the Ca2+- sensitive release of the TnI inhibitory region by TnC within the muscle filament. A modified schematic diagram of the TnC/TnI interaction is proposed. © 2001 Wiley-Liss, Inc. |
