1. Native 6% Laemmli gels were used to resolve 7 protein kinase activity bands in control and malignant hyperthermia (MH)-susceptible porcine and human skeletal muscle extracts. 2. MH-susceptible samples were consistently more active than the controls. 3. Following halothane treatment, a 43 kDa component displayed increased phosphorylation by a calcium-calmodulin dependent kinase in MH-susceptible vs control human samples. 4. Increased phosphorylation of additional endogenous protein components of molecular mass 116 and 60 kDa was observed.
