Triad

two terminal cisterna and T-tubule

Thin Filament

twizzler shaped, Actin (tropomyosin strings around bigger balls (g-actin molecules) with smaller balls (troponin) on the strings) thus it's a multiprotein structure, 3000 chain

Troponin

Ca binds to this, Troponin masks myosin head binding site (unmasked by Ca binding which lifts troponin from head binding site)

Properties of skeletal muscle

Excitation --> Contraction --> Relaxation

Excitation of skeletal muscle

Generation of action potential --> neuromuscular junction (midpoint of fiber) (study pic)

Contraction of Skeletal Muscle

causes shortening of I band and H zone disappearance

sarcomere

repeating contractile unit

Step one of contraction of skeletal muscle

Muscle action potential propogated --> transverse tubule --> lateral sac (of SER)

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

Vesicles wait for action potentials --> fuse with terminal ending with influx of Ca (end plate) --> release into synaptic cleft --? find its receptor on sarcolemma --? depolarization (excitation of sarcolemma) --> neurotransmitter breaks up because of achesterase --> repolarization (dual ion channel)

Neurotransmitter

modified AA's

Acetylcholine

essential AA, combo of acetate and choline

Achesterase

breaks acetylcholine bond

E supply

lactic acid and E (resynthesis of CP from creatine and phosphoric acid)

Lactic Acid + Oxygen -->

H2O + CO2 + E (resynthesis of ATP + CP)

Structure of smooth muscle

central nucleus, no orderly arrangement of actin and myosin (no striations)

Action potentials of smooth muscle

not always req for contraction

Smooth muscle stimulation overall

No troponin,


Circular Contraction

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

Cardiac muscle

intermediate, intercalated disks at ends of muscle cells allow for transmission of electrical activity- cardiac muscle acts as syncytium, A

Action potentials of Cardiac muscle

occur spontaneously within pacemaker cells (sincatrical node) cells in R atrium can automatically depolarize, regulated by autonomic nervous system, electrical conduction system of heart (Na at certain points leak into surrounding walls, no T-tubules, yes troponin, two sources of Ca, Ca two sources same as smooth)

Relaxation of cardiac muscle

Tetanus

sporelated, treated with supportive therapy, neurotoxin from clostridium tetani, lockjaw (masseter stronger)


excitory impulses aren't regulated- produces continuous tonic muscle spasms



Botulism

botulinum toxin produced by clostridium bolulinum, limberneck in poultry


acts on neuromuscular junction- toxin prevents vesicles containing Ach @ synapse from releasing

Rigor/ Rigor Mortis

when most ATP is depleted- myosin heads cant separate from actin and Ca can't be sequestered back into SR by Ca pump --> no relaxation



Fatigue

decrease in ATP availability, function of muscle cell- not due to neurons
