The relationship between spontaneous contraction and protein phosphorylation of rat uterine smooth muscle was studied. Myometrial strips from estrogen-dominated rats were incubated in [32P]orthophosphate and then frozen at various levels of isometric tension. Proteins were separated by gel electrophoresis and the incorporation of32P was measured. Contraction was associated with the phosphorylation of one major protein (20,000 Mr). This phosphorylation preceded maximal tension development and dephosphorylation preceded complete spontaneous relaxation. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis indicates that the 20,000-Mrprotein is the myosin light chain which has been implicated in the regulation of smooth muscle contraction.
