Modification of the kinetic parameters of aldolase on binding to the actin-containing filaments of skeletal muscle. 1977

T P Walsh, and F M Clarke, and C J Masters

The kinetic parameters of fructose bisphosphate aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13) were shown to be modified on binding of the enzyme to the actin-containing filaments of skeletal muscle. Although binding to F-actin or F-actin-tropomyosin filaments results in relative minor changes in kinetic properties, binding to F-actin-tropomyosin-troponin filaments produces major alterations in the kinetic parameters, and, in addition, renders them Ca2+-sensitive. These observations may be relevant to an understanding of the function of this enzyme within the muscle fibre.

D005634 Fructose-Bisphosphate Aldolase An enzyme of the lyase class that catalyzes the cleavage of fructose 1,6-biphosphate to form dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. The enzyme also acts on (3S,4R)-ketose 1-phosphates. The yeast and bacterial enzymes are zinc proteins. (Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992) E.C. 4.1.2.13.

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.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. 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.
