  • Title: The isolation and characterization of the ATPase inhibitory protein (TN-I) from bovine cardiac muscle.
    Author: Burtnick LD, McCubbin WD, Kay CM.
    Journal: Can J Biochem; 1975 Nov; 53(11):1207-13. PubMed ID: 127652.
    Abstract:
    The inhibitory component of the troponin complex (TN-I) was purified from bovine cardiac muscle, using a combination of ion exchange and molecular exclusion chromatographies in the presence of urea. It has the ability to inhibit the Mg2+-activated APTase (EC 3.6.1.3) of a synthetic cardiac actomyosin preparation and this inhibition is reversed by the addition of cardiac calcium binding component of troponin (TN-C). Conventional sedimentation equilibrium experiments suggest a molecular weight for cardiac TN-I of 22 900 +/- 500. However, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) gels indicate a molecular weight of 27 000 +/- 1000. The mobility of TN-I on SDS gels may be anomalous due to the high proportion of basic amino acid residues in the protein. Cardiac TN-I and TN-C interact to form a tight complex, even in the presence of 6 M urea. The results of this study invite direct comparison with results published for rabbit skeletal TN-I.
