Actin binding sites are located on

A

troponin

B

tropomyosin

C

meromyosin

D

both (b) and (c).

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Heavy meromyosin consists of two globular subframent (S-1) and one rod shaped fibre sub-fragment (S-2). Each S-1 segment contains an ATPase site and a binding site for actin.

Each ‘6‘ actin is a polymer of monomeric ‘F’ (Filamentous) actins. (c ). Two hlaments of another protein, troponin also run close to the ‘F' actin throughout its length (d). In the resting state a subunit of troponin masks the active binding sites for myosin on the actin filaments. (e).
