Revised Manuscript Received June 9, 1995® abstract: Interactions between troponin C (TnC) and troponin I (Tnl) play an important role in the Ca2+-dependent regulation of vertebrate striated muscle contraction. Earlier studies have led to the proposal that the" inhibitory region"(residues 96—116) of Tnl binds to an-helical segment of TnC comprising residues 89—100 in the nonregulatory, C-terminal domain. Subsequently, on the basis of the results of zero-length cross-linking, we suggested that the inhibitory region of Tnl also interacts with the N-terminal, regulatory domain of TnC [Leszyk, J., Grabarek, Z., Gergely, J., & Collins, J. H.(1990) Biochemistry 29, 299—304], In the present study, we acetylated the 6-NH2 groups of the nine lysines of TnC in order to avoid complications which mayarise from intramolecular cross-linking between NH2 and COOH groups of TnC. We then activated the COOH groups of acetylated TnC (AcTnC) with 1-ethyl-3-[3—(dimethylamino) propyl] carbodiimide and V-hydroxysuccinimide. The activated AcTnC was combined with Tnl, and zero-length cross-links were formed between COOH groups in AcTnC and lysine e-NH2 groups in Tnl. The cross-linked heterodimer (AcCxI) was cleaved with CNBr and proteases, and the resulting cross-linked peptides were separated by HPLC and then sequenced. Our results show extensive cross-linking between AcTnC and Tnl, involving both the N-terminal and C-terminal domains of TnC, as well as the N-terminal, C-terminal, and inhibitoryVertebrate striated muscle contraction is regulated by Ca2+ and requires the proteinstroponin and tropomyosin, located on the actin-containingthin filaments. Troponin is composed of three subunits: troponin C (TnC), 1 which binds Ca2+; Tnl, which inhibits actomyosinATPase activity, and TnT, which binds tropomyosin. Ca2+-dependent changes in the interactions between TnC and Tnl are the key events in the activation of contraction. It is thought that Ca2+-dependent structural changes in TnC weaken the interaction of Tnl with actin, So that actin activates myosin ATPase and muscle contracts,[for reviews, see Leavis and Gergely (1984), Zot and Potter (1987), Grabarek et al.(1992), and Chalovich (1992)].
