Sherwin S. Lehrer,** David R. Betteridge, Philip Graceffa, Sunny Wong, and John C. Seidel abstract: In contrast toprevious conformational studies with rabbit skeletal and cardiac tropomyosins,(i) when the cysteine side chains of chicken gizzard tropomyosin were reacted with 5, 5'-dithiobis (2-nitrobenzoate), an interchain disulfide cross-link was not produced,(ii) when they were labeled with py-renylmaleimide, excimer fluorescence was not observed, and (iii) when they were labeled with didansylcystine, a long-lived fluorescence component did not appreciably contribute to the fluorescence decay over a large temperature range includingTropomyosin is a component of striated and smooth muscle thin filaments (Small & Sobieszek, 1983). In striated muscle systems, in conjunction with troponin, it is involved in the Ca2+-dependent thin filament regulation of contraction (Ebashi & Endo, 1968), whereas its role in smooth muscle is less clear since regulation appears to be accomplished via a Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation of myosin on the thick filament (Chacko et al., 1977; Gorecka et al., 1976; Sobieszek & Small, 1976).
