Carp Natural Actomyosin: Thermal Denaturation Mechanism

Abstract: Structural changes of actomyosin, the major protein of muscle, on heating have been estimated on ATPase activity. We investigated carp actomyosin molecule changes on heating based on biophysical and biochemical techniques. Actomyosin molecules began to unfold at ~30°C. Hydrophobic amino acid residues and SH groups, which had been inside the molecule, emerged to the surface. Because of hydrophobic interactions and disulfide bonds, actomyosin molecules formed aggregates. At > 4O"C, a part of myosin molecules was… Show more

“…And content of random coil at −12°C and −18°C was slightly higher than 4°C and −1°C. e stabilized α-helix structures were maintained by hydrogen bonds between -CO and NH-of a polypeptide chain [20]. e reduction of α-helix at 4°C and −1°C illustrated that the stability of the secondary structure of myofibrillar protein like hydrogen bonds would be damaged.…”

“…The effect of pH on the secondary structure of scallop actomyosin was also closely related to temperature, with a higher temperature always causing more obvious differences. The a-helical structure is mainly stabilized by hydrogen bonds between the carbonyl oxygen (-CO) and amino hydrogen (NH-) of a polypeptide chain [33,34]. Electrostatic interactions between amino acids also contribute greatly to the stability of secondary structures [35].…”

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] During the setting, myosin is denatured and aggregated, and simultaneously polymerized by a calcium dependent endogenous TGase* which is responsible for the setting phenomenon and en hance the surimi gelling properties in a great extents.9-13) Thus, the final gel properties seem to be largely determined by a combination of thermal gelling ability of myosin and TGase reaction in the surimi sol.14-16) It is therefore im portant to separate the process of thermally induced gela tion from setting effect induced by TGase to understand the final properties of the two-step heating gel. In this paper we report the effect of the addition of TGase to the heat-denatured surimi, which almost totally lacks gelling ability and setting response, on the recovery of these properties in order to clarify the important roles of TGase and native structure of myosin in the gelling process.…”
