Methods and Results: SDS-PAGE electrophoresis determined the effects of heart failure on cRLC phosphorylation on human heart failure (HF) samples and a rat chronic-MI model. We report an increase in RLC phosphorylation in HF progression. Recombinant cRLC was cloned and expressed. Recombinant RLC was differentially phosphorylated in-vitro using cardiac myosin light chain kinase (cMLCK) and ZIP kinase. Recombinant RLC species were exchanged into permeabilised cardiac trabeculae to perform mechanical measurements during shortening (slack test and force-velocity experimentation protocols). We observed a decrease in peak power, velocity at peak power (VPP) and peak isometric force of contraction when reducing RLC phosphorylation. Conversely, enriching RLC phosphorylation increased peak power, VPP and peak maximal unloaded shortening velocity (VMAX) in comparison to control. Conclusions: Altering cRLC phosphorylation has a significant impact on the mechanical function of cardiac muscle and is dramatically altered during HF progression. These results highlight the importance of understanding thick filament regulation and specifically the ability of cRLC phosphorylation to regulate cardiac muscle function.1583-Pos Board B475 Removal of Proximal IG Domains of Titin in Soleus Muscle Results in Differential Splicing of Titin MRNA Danielle E. Buck, Charles S. Chung, John E. Smith, Henk L. Granzier. University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ, USA. Titin is the largest protein known that functions as a molecular spring in striated muscle. Its elastic properties are acquired through differential splicing of spring-like domains of titin including the immunoglobuline-like (IG) and PEVK. Our lab has recently created a novel mouse model in which nine of the proximal IG domains (titin exons 30-38, 90kDa reduction in protein size) have been deleted (IG KO). Surprisingly in the skeletal muscles from IG KO mice, titin was found to undergo additional differential splicing to yield smaller titin isoforms. These changes in splicing were found to be developmentally regulated and occur to different extents in various muscles. Most prominently, in the adult soleus muscle, two smaller titin isoforms were present in the IG KO (3.42 MDa 5 0.008 and 3.24 MDa 5 0.027 respectively) as compared to one larger isoform found in wild-type mice (3.61 MDa 5 0.057). Titin microarray analysis revealed IG KO mice had significant downregulation of exons in the PEVK region in addition to the lack of exons 30-38 as compared to wild-type. Consistent with a decrease in titin size, IG KO soleus muscles produced an increased passive tension (19%, p= 0.02) at 20% above slack length of the muscle as probed by intact mechanics. However, maximal active tension in the soleus and other muscles were not significantly different in the wildtype as compared to IG KO. Two titin binding proteins were found to be differentially expressed by Affymetrix Array, CARP (7.23 fold increased in IG KO, p< 0.001) and myomesin (2.13 fold decreased in IG KO, p< 0.001). The reason for the differential expression of titin binding proteins and the muscle specific changes in alternative splicing need to be further studied.
