Physarummyosin is a Ca2+-binding protein and its activity is inhibited by Ca2+. In the present study, to clarify the light chains (LCs) from the different species (Physarumand scallop) and to determine the specific Ca2+-regulated effects, we constructed hybrid myosins with aPhysarummyosin heavy chain (Ph·HC) andPhysarumand/or scallop myosin LCs, and examined Ca2+-mediated regulation of ATPases and motor activities. In these experiments, it was found that Ca2+inhibited motilities and ATPase activities ofPhysarumhybrid myosin with scallop regulatory light chain (ScRLC) andPhysarumessential light chain (PhELC) but could not inhibit those of thePhysarumhybrid myosin mutant Ph·HC/ScRLC/PhELC-3A which lacks Ca2+-binding ability, indicating that PhELC plays a critical role in Ca2+-mediated regulation ofPhysarummyosin. Furthermore, the effects of Ca2+on ATPase activities ofPhysarummyosin constructs are in the following order: Ph·HC/PhRLC/PhELC > Ph·HC/ScRLC/PhELC > Ph·HC/PhRLC/ScELC > Ph·HC/ScRLC/ScELC, suggesting that the presence of PhRLC and PhELC leads to the greatest Ca2+sensitivity ofPhysarummyosin. Although we did not observe the motilities ofPhysarumhybrid myosin Ph·HC/PhRLC/ScELC and Ph·HC/ScRLC/ScELC, our results suggest that Ca2+-binding to the PhELC may alter the flexibility of the regulatory domain and induce a ’closed’ state, which may consequently prevent full activity and force generation.
