Abstract excerpt

1. The Ca2(+)-activated and Mg2+ actin-activated myosin ATPase activities of flightless mfd- mutant Drosophila flight muscle myosin were one-half and one-third of those of the wild-type fly muscle myosin, respectively. 2. In the two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, the spots corresponding to phos...
