The activation of muscle phosphorylase kinase b by actin has been studied. F-actin which is polymerized by 2 mM MgCl2 is a more effective activator of phosphorylase kinase than F-actin polymerized by 50 mM KCl. There is evidence suggesting that the activation of phosphorylase kinase by actin is not due to trace contamination of actin preparations with calmodulin: (1) Troponin I and trifluoperazine inhibit the activation of phosphorylase kinase by calmodulin but do not inhibit the activation of phosphorylase kinase by F-actin. (2) The activation induced by saturating concentrations of calmodulin and actin is additive both at pH 8.2 and at pH 6.8. (3) The activation of phosphorylase kinase by calmodulin and actin has different pH profiles. An addition of F-actin does not affect the apparent Km value for ATP but increases the sensitivity to phosphorylase b and the value of Vmax.

D011188 Potassium An element in the alkali group of metals with an atomic symbol K, atomic number 19, and atomic weight 39.10. It is the chief cation in the intracellular fluid of muscle and other cells. Potassium ion is a strong electrolyte that plays a significant role in the regulation of fluid volume and maintenance of the WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE.
D011817 Rabbits A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.

D002147 Calmodulin A heat-stable, low-molecular-weight activator protein found mainly in the brain and heart. The binding of calcium ions to this protein allows this protein to bind to cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases and to adenyl cyclase with subsequent activation. Thereby this protein modulates cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP levels.
