Abstract
Myosin light chain kinase was partially purified from bovine adrenal medulla. A polypeptide of Mr 165,000 dalton was identified as kinase by using anti-gizzard myosin light chain kinase IgG on immunoreplica. Phosphorylation of medullary myosin was Ca2+- and calmodulin-dependent. The phosphorylated myosin was showed to enhance the actin-activated Mg2+-ATPase activity. In contrast, the myosin ATPase activity was dramatically decreased by dephosphorylation of myosin.Entities:
