|
Step twoof contraction of skeletal muscle |
Ca 2+ released from lateral sac --> Troponin |
|
Step three of contraction of skeletal muscle |
Ca 2+ binding to toponin removes blocking action of tropomyosin |
|
Step four of contraction of skeletal muscle |
Cross bridge moves (thick and thin) filament movement of tropomyosin, allows binding sites of actin to be exposed --> Myosin binds to actin - myosin head is charged and bends 90 degrees when bound to actin --> movement pulls actin towards center of Sarcomere (Z-lines) --> After contraction, more ATP reqs to pump Ca back into SR (also to reestablish resting membrane) |
|
Step five of contraction of skeletal muscle |
Ca 2+ leaving troponin restores tropomyosin blocking actin, with Ca 2+ re-sequestration --> lateral sac |
|
Relaxation of Skeletal muscle |
Ca sequestered into SR and ion pumps inside use ATP to pump Ca from SR --> Storage (without ATP muscle cannot relax) |
|
Neuromuscular Junction |

|
Smooth muscle stimulation steps |
Ca released from SR and Na is inside, Ca also enters from outside cell via Ca channels inside cells- Ca binds to an adapter protein called Calmodulin --> that attraction activates kinase that phosphorylates --> myosin (light chain) to allow binding with actin |
|
relaxation of smooth muscle |
phosphatase breaks PO4 off and myosin head cant engage + Ca ATPase pumps Ca back to whence it came |
