Myosin Myosin is a protein molecule found in the thick filaments. Myosin is a protein molecule found in the thick filaments.

Myosin ► Myosin has a tail and two heads (called cross bridges) which will move back and forth, providing the power stroke for muscle contraction.

Myosin Molecule with Hinged Head and Tail ► The tail of myosin has a hinge which allows vertical movement so that the cross bridge can bind to actin.

Myosin ATP Binding Site ► The cross bridge (head) of myosin has a binding site for ATP. ► Myosin is in its low energy conformation when the cross bridge is in this position:

Energized Cross Bridge ► ATP is a molecule with a high chemical energy. ATP binds to myosin heads when they are tilted back in their low energy position. When ATP is hydrolyzed into ADP and phosphate, the energy is released and transferred to the myosin head.

Energized Cross Bridge ► Note that the ATP is glowing yellow indicating that it's in a high energy state. After the ATP has been hydrolyzed to ADP and phosphate, the energy is transferred to the myosin head. Now the head is glowing to show that it's high energy. When the myosin head is pointing up, it is in a high energy state.

4 steps for myosin functioning

Actin Binding Site on Myosin ► There are two binding sites on each myosin head, one for ATP and one for actin.

Thin Filaments of the Sarcomere ► Thin filaments are made of these three protein molecules: ► 1. actin ► 1. actin ► 2.tropomyosin ► 2.tropomyosin ► 3. troponin

Tropomyosin ► The regulatory protein, tropomyosin, is also part of the thin filament. Tropomyosin twists around the actin. When the sarcomere is not shortening, the position of the tropomyosin covers the binding sites on the actin subunits and prevents myosin cross bridge binding.

Troponin ► Troponin, which is found periodically along the tropomyosin strand, functions to move the tropomyosin aside, exposing the myosin binding sites.

Calcium Ions ► Role of Calcium in Muscle Contraction: ► Action potential occurs. ↓ ► Calcium ions are released from the terminal cisternae from the Sarcoplasmic Reticulum (SR). ↓ ► Calcium ions then bind to troponin. ↓ ► Tropomyosin moves away from the myosin binding sites on actin.

SARCOMERE ARRANGEMENT

Sequence of Events in a Single Cross Bridge Cycle ► 1. An influx of calcium, triggering the exposure of binding sites on actin. ► 2. The binding of myosin to actin. ► 3. The power stroke of the cross bridge that causes the sliding of the thin filaments. ► 4. The binding of ATP to the cross bridge, which results in the cross bridge disconnecting from actin. ► 5. The hydrolysis of ATP, which leads to the re-energizing and repositioning of the cross bridge. ► 6. The transport of calcium ions back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Summary of the Role of ATP ► 1. ATP transfers its energy to the myosin cross bridge, which in turn energizes the power stroke. ► 2. ATP disconnects the myosin cross bridge from the binding site on actin. ► 3. ATP fuels the pump that actively transports calcium ions back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
