Pressure-Induced Changes in Myofibrillar Proteins

Abstract

Natural actomyosin, synthetic actomyosin, myosin and F-actinwere subjected to lactoperoxidasecatalysed iodination with 1251 before and after exposure to a pressure of 150 MNm-2 ? After iodination myosin was split into its subfragments, light and heavy meromyosin, and the actomyosins were separated into their component proteins
