Abstract excerpt
Point mutations R167H and K168E in tropomyosin Tpm1.1 (TM) disturb Ca2+-dependent regulation of the actomyosin ATPase. To understand mechanisms of this defect we studied multistep changes in mobility and spatial arrangement of tropomyosin, actin and myosin heads during the ATPase cycle in reconstituted ghost fibres using the polarized fluorescence microscopy. It was found that both mutations disturbed the mode of...
