10-4 Components of the Neuromuscular Junction
The Control of Skeletal Muscle Activity The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) Between nervous system and skeletal muscle fiber Stimulates release of calcium ions into sarcoplasm
75
Figure 10-11 Skeletal Muscle Innervation
Motor neuron Path of electrical impulse (action potential) Axon Neuromuscular junction Synaptic terminal SEE BELOW Sarcoplasmic reticulum Motor end plate Myofibril Motor end plate 75
76
Figure 10-11 Skeletal Muscle Innervation
The cytoplasm of the synaptic terminal contains vesicles filled with molecules of acetylcholine, or ACh. Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter, a chemical released by a neuron to change the permeability or other properties of another cell’s plasma membrane. The synaptic cleft and the motor end plate contain molecules of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE), which breaks down ACh. Vesicles ACh The synaptic cleft, a narrow space, separates the synaptic terminal of the neuron from the opposing motor end plate. Junctional fold of motor end plate AChE 76
77
Figure 10-11 Skeletal Muscle Innervation
The stimulus for ACh release is the arrival of an electrical impulse, or action potential, at the synaptic terminal. An action potential is a sudden change in the transmembrane potential that travels along the length of the axon. Arriving action potential 77
78
Figure 10-11 Skeletal Muscle Innervation
When the action potential reaches the neuron’s synaptic terminal, permeability changes in the membrane trigger the exocytosis of ACh into the synaptic cleft. Exocytosis occurs as vesicles fuse with the neuron’s plasma membrane. Motor end plate 78
79
Figure 10-11 Skeletal Muscle Innervation
ACh molecules diffuse across the synatpic cleft and bind to ACh receptors on the surface of the motor end plate. ACh binding alters the membrane’s permeability to sodium ions. Because the extracellular fluid contains a high concentration of sodium ions, and sodium ion concentration inside the cell is very low, sodium ions rush into the sarcoplasm. ACh receptor site 79
80
Figure 10-11 Skeletal Muscle Innervation
The sudden inrush of sodium ions results in the generation of an action potential in the sarcolemma. AChE quickly breaks down the ACh on the motor end plate and in the synaptic cleft, thus inactivating the ACh receptor sites. Action potential AChE 80
81
10-4 Components of the Neuromuscular Junction
Excitation–Contraction Coupling Action potential reaches a triad Releasing Ca2+ Triggering contraction Requires myosin heads to be in “cocked” position Loaded by ATP energy
82
Figure 10-10 The Exposure of Active Sites
SARCOPLASMIC RETICULUM Calcium channels open Myosin tail (thick filament) Tropomyosin strand Troponin G-actin (thin filament) Active site Nebulin In a resting sarcomere, the tropomyosin strands cover the active sites on the thin filaments, preventing cross-bridge formation. When calcium ions enter the sarcomere, they bind to troponin, which rotates and swings the tropomyosin away from the active sites. Cross-bridge formation then occurs, and the contraction cycle begins. 82

The Contraction Cycle Contraction Cycle Begins Active-Site Exposure Cross-Bridge Formation Myosin Head Pivoting Cross-Bridge Detachment Myosin Reactivation
84
Figure 10-12 The Contraction Cycle
Contraction Cycle Begins The contraction cycle, which involves a series of interrelated steps, begins with the arrival of calcium ions within the zone of overlap. Myosin head Troponin Tropomyosin Actin 84
85
Figure 10-12 The Contraction Cycle
Active-Site Exposure Calcium ions bind to troponin, weakening the bond between actin and the troponin– tropomyosin complex. The troponin molecule then changes position, rolling the tropomyosin molecule away from the active sites on actin and allowing interaction with the energized myosin heads. Sarcoplasm Active site 85
86
Figure 10-12 The Contraction Cycle
Cross-Bridge Formation Once the active sites are exposed, the energized myosin heads bind to them, forming cross-bridges. 86
87
Figure 10-12 The Contraction Cycle
Myosin Head Pivoting After cross-bridge formation, the energy that was stored in the resting state is released as the myosin head pivots toward the M line. This action is called the power stroke; when it occurs, the bound ADP and phosphate group are released. 87
88
Figure 10-12 The Contraction Cycle
Cross-Bridge Detachment When another ATP binds to the myosin head, the link between the myosin head and the active site on the actin molecule is broken. The active site is now exposed and able to form another cross-bridge. 88
89
Figure 10-12 The Contraction Cycle
Myosin Reactivation Myosin reactivation occurs when the free myosin head splits ATP into ADP and P. The energy released is used to recock the myosin head. 89
