Caldesmon, an actin-and calmodulin-binding protein that was first isolated from gizzard muscle and shown to inhibit superprecipitation of smooth muscle actomyosin,'is identical with the relaxing factor found in aorta muscle. 2 Caldesmon inhibits the actin-activated ATP hydrolysis of smooth3" and skeletal m~ scle~~ myosins and their subfragments. Caldesmon is excluded from the intermediate filament-actin domain of smooth musclesI0 but is present in the contractile actomyosin domain." In other cells, caldesmon has the same distribution as tropomyosin. I2 Recently, caldesmon has been implicated in receptor cappingi3. 14 and has been shown to inhibit contraction of desensitized skeletal muscle fibersI5 and smooth muscle fibers. I6 For these, and other reasons to be discussed, it is likely that caldesmon is a component of the regulatory apparatus of contraction of smooth and nonmuscle cells. Our interest in caldesmon stems from the fact that, like troponin-tropomyosin, it is an actin-linked regulatory protein of ATP hydrolysis. We are interested in the mechanism of regulation of contraction by actinbinding proteins and in particular if regulation occurs by the same mechanism in all cases.That caldesmon is a potent inhibitor of actin-activated ATP hydrolysis of myosin is shown in FIGURE 1. Caldesmon reduces the rate of ATP hydrolysis to about 5% of the rate in the presence of actin-tropomyosin alone. The rates are normalized to allow comparison of various smooth and skeletal myosin subfragments. The effect of caldesmon on the actin-activated ATPase activity is virtually the same for skeletal myosin (not shown), heavy meromyosin (HMM), and myosin subfragment 1 (SI) as well as smooth HMM and S-1. In contrast to the inhibition of actin-activated ATPase activity, caldesmon has no effect on the basal rate of ATP hydrolysis in the absence of actin. FIGURE 2 shows the effect of caldesmon on the rate of ATP hydrolysis of smooth and skeletal myosin and their subfragments in the absence of actin. The basal rates of ATP hydrolysis of all myosin species were unaffected even at 4 pM caldesmon (equivalent to a caldesmodactin ratio of 0.08 in FIG. 1). This same concentration of caldesmon, however, gave virtually maximum inhibition in the presence of 50 pM actin as shown in FIGURE 1. In the case of smooth muscle myosin the caldesmon concentration
