Abstract

The skeletal muscle troponin complex, the troponin T subunit of which was labeled with 2-((4'-iodoacetamido)anilino)naphthalene-6-sulfonic acid, showed a fluorescence titration curve with a midpoint of around pCa 6.75. Addition of 2 mM MgCl2 had no effect on the fluorescence titration curve. Therefore, we conclude that Ca2+ binding to the low affinity Ca2+-binding sites of troponin C induces a conformational change of troponin T, but Ca2+ binding to the high affinity Ca2+-binding sites does not.
