Abstract:N-Ethylmaleimide (NEVI), a thiol reagent, specifically modifies SHl and SHE, in the active site of ATPase in skeletal myosin.') Although it is impossible to modify SH~~ alone without modifying SH1, SHl modification with NEM does not affect the essential physiological properties of myosin.'' Accordingly, the physiological function of the local area containing SHE, (SH2 region) has been studied by using SHl-NEM modified myosin (myosin*) or SHrNEM modified subfragment-1 (S-1°) on the structural basis>> as follows… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
