Muscle fibers: Muscle fibers: single cell w/ many single cell w/ many nuclei consisting of….nuclei consisting of….
Myofibrils: Myofibrils: longitudinal bundles longitudinal bundles composed of….composed of….
Myofilaments:Myofilaments: •Thin~ •Thin~ 2 strands of actin protein and a 2 strands of actin protein and a

Sarcomere length reducedSarcomere length reduced
Z line length becomes shorterZ line length becomes shorter
Actin and myosin slide past each other Actin and myosin slide past each other (overlap increases)(overlap increases)
Actin-myosin interactionActin-myosin interaction1- Myosin head hydrolyzes ATP to ADP and inorganic phosphate (Pi); 1- Myosin head hydrolyzes ATP to ADP and inorganic phosphate (Pi); termed the “high energy configuration”termed the “high energy configuration”
2- Myosin head binds to actin; termed a “cross bridge”2- Myosin head binds to actin; termed a “cross bridge”
3- Releasing ADP and (Pi), myosin relaxes sliding actin; “low energy 3- Releasing ADP and (Pi), myosin relaxes sliding actin; “low energy configuration”configuration”
4- Binding of new ATP releases myosin head4- Binding of new ATP releases myosin head
Creatine phosphate~ supplier of phosphate to ADPCreatine phosphate~ supplier of phosphate to ADP
Muscle contraction regulation, IMuscle contraction regulation, I
RelaxationRelaxation: : tropomyosin tropomyosin blocks myosin binding sites on blocks myosin binding sites on actinactin
ContractionContraction: : calcium calcium binds to toponin complex; binds to toponin complex; tropomyosin changes shape, tropomyosin changes shape, exposing myosin binding sites exposing myosin binding sites
