Revised Manuscript Received October 15, 1987 abstract: By peptide isolation and analysis, it has been shown that the dansyl fluorophore of dansylcadaverine [Ar-(5-aminopentyl)-5-(dimethylamino) naphthalene-l-sulfonamide] transfers to Gln-41 of actin from rabbit skeletal muscle when the reaction is catalyzed by guinea pig liver transglutaminase. As a function of time, thedegree of labeling asymptotically approaches 1 mol of dansyl/1mol of actin. About 80-85% of the attached dansyl fluorophore was found at Gln-41. Such labeled G-actin polymerizes to the same extent as control actin, but the polymerization rate is greater and the critical concentration is less than for control actin. Complete polymerization is accompanied by a 1.5-2.0-fold increase in the emission intensity of the attached fluorophore. Labeled F-actin thus obtained activates myosin subfragment 1
