The Role of Calcium in Signal Transduction: Kinetics and Regulation of Intracellular Calcium During the Photomechanical Response of the Albino Rat Sphincter Pupillae Smooth Muscle
… → calcium-calmodulin complexes → myosin light chain kinase → phosphorylated myosin → force. In the isolated vertebrate sphincter pupillae, the myosin phosphorylation cascade can be activated very precisely by controlled light stimuli, which result in equivalently precise …

Force potentiation in the MDX mouse
… PTP changes, fiber typing and Western blots for myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) were performed. YM and YC had similar fiber type profiles (2% I, 58% IIX/D and 40% IIB). In accordance with literature but contrary to expected conditions for elevated PTP, OM had a slower fiber type profile (1.7% I, …

Force potentiation as a modulator of contractile performance: Implications for control of skeletal muscle force and energetics of work
… fast hindlimb muscles from wildtype and skeletal myosin light chain kinase knockout (skMLCK-/-) mice that does not express the primary mechanism for PTP: myosin regulatory light chain (RLC) phosphorylation. In contrast to smooth/cardiac muscles where RLC phosphorylation is indispensable, its …
