One of the two regulatory light chains, RLC-a, of scallop smooth muscle myosin was fully phosphorylated by myosin light chain kinase of chicken gizzard muscle. The residue phosphorylated was Ser. It may be the Ser at number 11 from the N-terminal. The sequence of 9 residues around the Ser-11, QRATSNVFA, is identical with that around the phosphorylatable Ser of LC20 of chicken gizzard myosin. RLC-a was also phosphorylated slowly by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The phosphorylation of RLC-a may be involved in the regulatory system for the catch contraction of scallop muscle.
