Abstract

Since 1948 when Riseman and Kirkwood (6) originated it and 1952 when Morales and Botts (5) modified it, the so-called “binding theory” to account for the ATP-induced contraction of biological models of muscular contraction has been in and out of popularity. In the past, the milieux into which the models of contraction were put were modified and, except for differences of physical form, models have not been altered. This communication reports experiments in which the models of contraction (glycerol-treated rabbit psoas muscle fibers) were methylated and acetylated before use as an enzyme or as a model of contraction.
