This was done to help disrupt protein cross-bridges formed by formalin fixation and expose antigen binding sites.
It has been proposed that light chain phosphorylation causes individual cross-bridges to swing out from the myosin back-bone [ 5 ] , thereby bringing the actin binding site of the cross-bridge in close proximity to the actin filament.
In muscle, there is load-dependent recruitment of myosin-II cross-bridges; in other words, the duty ratio of muscle myosin-II can vary (reviewed by [ 27 ] ). For our calculations, we considered the duty ratio to be 0.006, which is the value measured for unloaded D. discoideum myosin-II.
This would increase the probability of cross-bridge binding to actin, resulting in a greater number of cross-bridges exerting force during the twitch contraction.
