PHYSARUM POLYCEPHALUM MYOSIN II REGULATORY DOMAIN

Overview

We have previously identified a single inhibitory Ca2+-binding site in the, first EF-hand of the essential light chain of Physarum conventional myosin, (Farkas, L., Malnasi-Csizmadia, A., Nakamura, A., Kohama, K., and Nyitray, L. (2003) J. Biol. Chem. 278, 27399-27405). As a general rule, conformation of the EF-hand-containing domains in the calmodulin family is, "closed" in the absence and "open" in the presence of bound cations; a, notable exception is the unusual Ca2+-bound closed domain in the essential, light chain of the Ca2+-activated scallop muscle myosin. Here we have, reported the 1.8 A resolution structure of the regulatory domain (RD) of, Physarum myosin II in which Ca2+ is bound to a canonical EF-hand that is, also in a closed state. The 12th position of the EF-hand loop, ... [(full description)]
