-
the thick filament of muscle is called what?
2
myosin
1
-
the thin filament of muscle is called....
2
actin
(+ troponin and tropomyosin)
1
-
what bundles the myosin units together
2
myomesin
1
-
what aligns the filaments attaching them to the Z line. This is a rigid protein.
2
nebulin
1
-
what stabilizes the sarcomeres by attaching the myosin to the z line. This is an elastic protein.
2
titin
1
-
what helps to anchor the thin filament to the Z line?
2
alph-actinin
1
-
what are the steps in the myosin cross-bridge cycle?
2
1) binding of actin to ADP and Pi release
2) Release of ADP=power stroke
3) ATP binding to Actin (release of Z line)
4) ATP hydrolysis (recovering stroke=actine and myosin bound with ADP+Pi)
1
-
what is the rate limiting step of the myosin cross-bridge cycle
2
in the heart hydrolysis is slow
hydrolysis of ATP
1
-
what is the large storage pool of phosphate that can be used to regenerate ATP
2
creatine phosphate (a high energy phosphate)
1
-
what are the two sources of ATP?
2
Glycolysis (anaerobic with products of pyruvate and lactate)
Citric Acid Cycle (aerobic with CO2 and H2O as products)
1
-
at rest Calcium concentrations are _________, but during activity they are ___________
2
low
high
1
-
what regulates contraction
2
calcium
1
-
what are the 3 domains of Troponin and what do they bind?
2
TnC--binds Calcium
TnI--binds actin
TnT--binds tropomyosin
1
-
when TnC binds Calcium it has ____________ affinity for the _____________ and the __________ releases actin
2
the effect is to move tropomyosin out of the way and maybe change actin conformation
higher
TnI
TnI
1
-
contration contiues until....
2
there is a drop in the free calcium concentrations
1
-
what is the name of the channel that releases Ca from the SR to the cytosol
2
Ryanodine receptor
1
-
what is the name of the channel that allows Ca into the cell
2
DHP sensitive Ca channels
1
-
what are three structures invovled in the regulation of Calcium
2
the membrane
T tubules (invaginations of the membrane)
sacroplasmic reticulum
1
-
the SR is composed of what two components?
2
longitudinal elements that form a network of tubes
longitudinal elements end in the terminal cisternae
1
-
what is the sequence of events following an AP in the sarcolemma
2
invades T tubule
activates DHPR Ca channel
causes ST ca relase through RyR using CICR
Ca binds Tn
cross-bridge and contraction
1
-
what is the sequence of events in activation
2
depolarization
increase in Ca
increase in CaTn
change in tropomiosin
increase in cross bridges
force
1
-
what are the passive forces in contraction
2
elastic elements such as titin keeping the structure of the sarcomere from lengthening. As well as CT and collagen which are external components.
