摘要

Cardiac myosin binding protein-C (cMyBP-C) located in the C-zone of myocyte sarcomere is involved in the regulation of myocardial contraction. Its N-terminal domains C0, C1, C2, and the m-motif between C1 and C2 can bind to the myosin head and actin of the thin filament and affect the characteristics of their interaction. Measurements using an optical trap showed that the C0-C2 fragment of cMyBP-C increases the interaction time of cardiac myosin with the actin filament, while in an in vitro motility assay, it dose-dependently reduces the sliding velocity of actin filaments. Thus, it was found that the N-terminal part of cMyBP-C affects the kinetics of the myosin cross-bridge.
