In the present study, we tested the
hypothesis that intrinsic differences in ATP consumption rate per cross
bridge exist across rat diaphragm muscle (Dia m ) fibers
expressing different myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoforms. During maximum
Ca 2+ activation (pCa 4.0) of single, Triton X-permeabilized
Dia m fibers, isometric ATP consumption rate was determined
by using an NADH-linked fluorometric technique. The MHC concentration
in single Dia m fibers was determined by densitometric
analysis of SDS-PAGE gels and comparison to a standard curve of known
MHC concentrations. Isometric ATP consumption rate varied across
Dia m fibers expressing different MHC isoforms, being
highest in fibers expressing MHC 2X (1.14 ± 0.08 nmol · mm 3 · s 1 )
and/or MHC 2B (1.33 ± 0.08 nmol · mm 3 · s 1 ),
followed by fibers expressing MHC 2A (0.77 ± 0.11 nmol · mm 3 · s 1 )
and MHC Slow (0.46 ± 0.03 nmol · mm 3 · s 1 ).
These differences in ATP consumption rate also persisted when it was
normalized for MHC concentration in single Dia m fibers. Normalized ATP consumption rate for MHC concentration varied across Dia m fibers expressing different MHC isoforms, being
highest in fibers expressing MHC 2X (2.02 ± 0.19 s 1 ) and/or MHC 2B (2.64 ± 0.15 s 1 ), followed by fibers expressing MHC 2A
(1.57 ± 0.16 s 1 ) and MHC Slow (0.77 ± 0.05 s 1 ). On the basis of these results, we conclude
that there are intrinsic differences in ATP consumption rate per cross
bridge in Dia m fibers expressing MHC isoforms.
