MBS targets cGKIa to the SMC contractile
apparatus and activation of cGKIa
|
|
increases PP1M
activity, the cGKIaincreases PP1M activity.

Thromboxane
analog U46619 caused an increase in myosin light chain
|
|
|
|
phosphorylation
from 10 to 68% in both vector and cGK1-59 transfected
|
|
|
vascular smooth muscle
cells.
|
|
|
| • |
In vector alone
transfected SMC, 8 Br-cGMP inhibited U46619 mediated
|
|
|
myosin light
chain phosphorylation.
|
|
|
| • |
Expression of
cGK1-59 diminished the ability of 8 Br-cGMP to inhibit myosin
|
|
|
light chain
phosphorylation following U46619 stimulation.

|
| • |
MBS assembles a
multienzyme complex tethering a phosphatase and at least
|
|
|
two kinases (Rho,
cGK) with counter-regulatory effects.
