Description
The enzyme from Dictyostelium sp. (slime moulds) brings about phosphorylation of the heavy chains of Dictyostelium myosin, inhibiting the actin-activated ATPase activity of the myosin. One threonine residue in each heavy chain acts as acceptor. While the enzyme from some species is activated by actin, in other cases Ca2+/calmodulin are required for activity.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
ATP:myosin-heavy-chain O-phosphotransferase; calmodulin-dependent myosin heavy chain kinase; MHCK; MIHC kinase; myosin heavy chain kinase; myosin I heavy-chain kinase; myosin II heavy-chain kinase; [myosin-heavy-chain] kinase; myosin heavy chain kinase A; STK6
Reaction
ATP + [myosin heavy-chain] = ADP + [myosin heavy-chain] phosphate
