myosin phosphatase activity
Definition
Target type: molecularfunction
Catalysis of the reaction: phosphomyosin + H2O = myosin + phosphate. [EC:3.1.3.16]
Myosin phosphatase activity is a crucial molecular function in the regulation of muscle contraction. It involves the dephosphorylation of myosin light chains (MLCs), which are key components of the myosin motor protein responsible for muscle contraction. Specifically, myosin phosphatase removes phosphate groups from serine residues within the MLCs, leading to a conformational change in myosin that reduces its affinity for actin filaments. This dephosphorylation event is essential for muscle relaxation, as it inhibits the interaction between myosin and actin, preventing the sliding filament mechanism that drives contraction. Myosin phosphatase activity is tightly regulated by various factors, including calcium, calmodulin, and phosphorylation of its own regulatory subunit. The balance between myosin phosphatase and myosin kinase activities determines the level of myosin phosphorylation and ultimately dictates the state of muscle contraction or relaxation.'
