ENZYME entry: EC 5.6.1.8
| Accepted Name |
|---|
| Myosin ATPase.
|
| Reaction catalysed |
|---|
| ATP + H(2)O + myosin bound to actin filament at position(n) <=> ADP + phosphate + myosin bound to actin filament at position(n+1) |
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- Proteins of the contractile apparatus of muscle and nonmuscle cells;
myosin molecule consists of two heavy chains (about 200 kDa) and two
pairs of light chains (15-27 kDa).
- The head region of the heavy chain contains actin- and ATP-binding
sites.
- ATP hydrolysis provides energy for actomyosin contraction.
- Formerly EC 3.6.1.32 and EC 3.6.4.9.
