The reactions of pyrene-labeled actin with myosin subfragment 1 (S1) and S1-ligand complexes at low ionic strength are described by the schemes [formula: see text] where M refers to a myosin head; A is actin; L is ligand; the asterisk refers to a high fluorescence state of actin; and K1 and K3 are association constants. K1 is reduced approximately 10-fold for M.ADP or M.pyrophosphate versus M alone. The rate constant of the isomerization step (k2) is 150-200 s-1 for A*M, A*M.ADP, and A*M-pyrophosphate (20 degrees C). The interaction between the ligand the actin binding sites reduces K2 from 2,000 for A*M to 50-100 for A*M.ADP and to approximately unity for A*M-pyrophosphate. The A*M.ADP state is equated with the AM'.ADP state of Sleep and Hutton (Sleep, J., A., and Hutton, R. L. (1980) Biochemistry 19, 1276-1283).

D000199 Actins Filamentous proteins that are the main constituent of the thin filaments of muscle fibers. The filaments (known also as filamentous or F-actin) can be dissociated into their globular subunits; each subunit is composed of a single polypeptide 375 amino acids long. This is known as globular or G-actin. In conjunction with MYOSINS, actin is responsible for the contraction and relaxation of muscle.

D000266 Adenylyl Imidodiphosphate 5'-Adenylic acid, monoanhydride with imidodiphosphoric acid. An analog of ATP, in which the oxygen atom bridging the beta to the gamma phosphate is replaced by a nitrogen atom. It is a potent competitive inhibitor of soluble and membrane-bound mitochondrial ATPase and also inhibits ATP-dependent reactions of oxidative phosphorylation.

Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
