      The myosin head now binds to actin and forms a crossbridge. 7. ADP and P i . are released from myosin, which causes the myosin to move. This movement is called the power stroke.8. ATP binds to myosin causing it to release the actin and reverting ATP into ADP and P i. The myosin is now ready to form another crossbridge and the cycle of ...

      actin, myosin, troponin, tropomyosin, Ca2+ ions, ATP, neuromuscular junction, and sarcoplasmic reticulum. Each component of the model should be clearly labeled. The model must clearly show the sequence of events that must occur for a sarcomere to shorten and to go back to its original length.

      Each myosin molecule contains a head that is bound to ATP. In order for the contraction to occur, the myosin head binds the actin. Then, ATP is hydrolyzed allowing the slide along the actin filament, thus shortening the sarcomere. Actin and myosin are the major players for a muscle contraction to occur, and are conserved across all animal species.

      Thick filaments are made up of myosin. Thin filaments are made of actin. Describe muscle contraction. Name three facts about the myosin structure. What fuels myosin activity? Describe a hopping motion. How does the reaction mechanism of actin and myosin work? Place X’s in the appropriate boxes.

      The myofilaments are protein filaments (actin: thin and myosin: thick) where the sliding occurs and where ATPase enzymes are used to break down ATP for energy. Explain each of the following terms: A band, I band, actin, myosin, thin filament, thick filament, myosin heads (crossbridges). Be sure to include any specifics discussed in class.

      The conformation change results in a “cocking” of the myosin head and prepares it for the next step. Step 3: Myosin head attaches to actin myofilament. At this point, the myosin head enters its high-energy configuration and binds to the actin myofilament. Before this step, the ADP and Pi are still bound to the myosin head.

      Actin and myosin bind together to form a cross bridge. The myosin heads then pull the actin filaments inward and release the ADP and Pi and return to a low energy position. The myosin is now ready for more ATP to bind and repeat the cycle. This process will continue for as long as there are Ca+ ions and ATP available.

      When tropomyosin is in place, actin and myosin are prevented from binding. The Sarcomere. The sarcomere is the functional unit of skeletal muscle. A functional unit is the smallest part of the ‘whole’ that does the job of the entire structure. A sarcomere is the smallest element in skeletal (and cardiac) muscle that contracts and generates ...
