16
Q

Thick filament

A

3 peptide chains, 1 heavy, 2 light, S1 (ATPase and actin binding site), S2 (neck), and tail region

17
Q

Thin filament

A

double stranded helix of actin monomers, with tropomyosin (extends over 7 actin filaments) and troponin (TnT, TnC, TnI)

18
Q

Cross bridge cycle

A

1) AM (rigor) myosin head bound to actin in 45deg angle
2) A + M-ATP, ATP binds and myosin head is released from actin in 45 deg angle
3) A + M-ADP-Pi, ATP is hydrolyzed, moves to 90deg angle, RESTING STATE
4) AM-ADP-Pi, myosin binds to actin IF Ca++ is present and has bound to TnC and moved tropomyosin out of the way, revealing actin binding site
5) AM, power stroke occurs when ADP-Pi leaves

19
Q

Isotonic

A

Same force, myosin detaches and binds to DIFFERENT actin molecule, shortening occurs

20
Q

Isometric

A

Same length, myosin detaches and binds to SAME actin molecule, force is generated

21
Q

Striated muscle is always turned ?

A

ON! only inhibited by troponin/tropomyosis, turned on when Ca++ binds to TnC of troponin, this is disinhibition

22
Q

T-tubules

A

Extracellular tubular system on invaginations of sarcolemma

23
Q

Sarcoplasmic reticulum

A

Intracellular tubular system which stores Ca++, has longitudinal part with Ca++ ATPase and terminal cisternea which stores Ca-calsequestrin

24
Q

Contraction in skeletal muscle

A

DHR act as voltage-sensor proteins and move foot processes our of the way so RYR can release Ca++ from SR, muscle relaxes through Ca++ ATPase in longitudinal SR which pumps Ca++ out of the cytosol into SR, no extracellular Ca++, contraction is all or none

25
Contraction in cardiac muscle
DHR act as voltage-gated calcium channels and respond to AP by letting a little Ca++ into the cell which triggers Ca++ release from the SR via the RYR - Calcium induced calcium release, need both Ca++ ATP for SR and Na/Ca exchanger (secondary AT) to remove Ca++ from the cytosol, contraction is graded, through prolonging plateau phase
26
PKA effects in cardiac muscle
1) phosphorylates TnI, increasing relaxation, and decreasing TnC affinity for Ca++ 2) phosphorylates phospholamban on SR that increases CaATPase activity, increasing relaxation
27
Force production in skeletal muscle is controlled by what?
Neural control
28
How is skeletal muscle graded
Twitch, summation of force (repeated APs), tetanus (repetitive stimulation, rarely occurs physiologically)
29
Henneman Size Principle
recruitment of motor units within a muscle takes place with recruitment of larger and larger motor units
