caldesmon-phosphatase activity

Interaction of S100a and S100b with duck gizzard caldesmon was investigated by means of native gel electrophoresis, fluorescent… Expand

The precise location of the regulatory F-actin- and calmodulin-binding sites in the COOH-terminal sequence Trp659-Pro756 of… Expand

We reported previously that smooth muscle caldesmon stimulates the ATP-dependent interaction between actin and phosphorylated… Expand

A caldesmon kinase activity was detected in an ATP extract of the myofibril‐like pellet from sheep aorta. The enzyme was purified… Expand

ATP-dependent movement of actin filaments on smooth muscle myosin was investigated by using the in vitro motility assay method in… Expand

In an effort to characterize the second messenger system for LH release, we have previously identified five calmodulin-binding… Expand

Monoclonal antibodies, C2, C9, C18, C21 and C23, against chicken gizzard caldesmon have been prepared and characterized. These… Expand

We have developed a simple and conventional purification method for caldesmon and MLC kinase from bovine arterial smooth muscle… Expand

Comparative analyses of the cytoskeletons of resting and stimulated platelets point out the involvement of a 79 kDa polypeptide… Expand

Caldesmon, a protein originally found in chicken gizzard, was concluded also to be present in bovine aorta, uterus, and human… Expand
