Several of the contractile proteins of the heart can be phosphorylated, but in studies with isolated proteins only phosphorylation of the inhibitory subunit of troponin (TnI) produces a major change in the properties of the contractile system. As TnI is phosphorylated, the concentration of calcium required for activation of contraction is increased. Phosphorylation of the tropomyosin-binding subunit of troponin (TnT) or of the light chain of myosin fails to change ATPase activity of the isolated protein system. Phosphorylation of TnI is stimulated by the beta-adrenergic system and inhibited by the cholinergic system. Maximum calcium-activated force produced by the contractile system can be increased in hyperpermeable cardiac cells by cyclic AmP (cAMP) or agents that stimulate cAMP synthesis. This change in the contractile system, which appears to be part of the physiological response to beta-adrenergic stimulation, is mediated by phosphorylation of an intermediate that then modifies the contractile system. Phosphorylation of the contractile proteins is not involved.
