Proteolysis of specific muscle structural proteins by mu-calpain at low pH and temperature is similar to degradation in postmortem bovine muscle.

Abstract: Postmortem (PM) and mu-calpain-induced degradation of specific skeletal muscle proteins was monitored by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting. Samples were removed from bovine longissimus thoracis (LT) at approximately 45 min PM for the preparation of at-death (0-d) myofibrils (MF). The LT was excised at 1 d PM, vacuum-packaged, and stored at 2 degrees C. Samples were removed for Warner-Bratzler shear force analysis and biochemical analysis at 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, and 56 d PM. The protease mu-calpain was purified from bo… Show more

“…For each temperature and pH decline combination, 2 myofibril populations were used. The pH decline of the digestions was monitored using a ThermoOrion PerpHect pH Meter, model 330 (Orion Research, Inc., Boston, MA), with pH measurements taken at 0, 0.17, 0.33, 0.5, 1, 3, 24, and 72 h. Myofibrils were digested by μ-calpain according to a modified procedure of Huff-Lonergan et al (1996a). Eight milliliters of glycerinated myofibrils were centrifuged at 3,100 × g for 6 min at 4°C and washed with 4 mL of 5 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0).…”

“…However, during storage, endogenous enzymes are able to decrease muscle tension as proteins are cleaved, weakening the structural integrity of muscle to improve meat tenderness in a process known as postmortem proteolysis (Aberle et al, 2001). This process is thought to primarily involve the calpain enzyme system (Koohmaraie, 1988;Huff-Lonergan et al, 1996a;Geesink et al, 2006;Mohrhauser et al, 2011); however, because prerigor postmortem temperature and pH conditions within muscle are not constant, optimal conditions for μ-calpain activity (25°C and pH of 6.5) are not always present within postmortem muscle (Boehm et al, 1998;Maddock et al, 2005). Additionally, it has been demonstrated that both pH and temperature can have dramatic effects on μ-calpain autolysis and activity.…”
