SUMMARYIn the isopod Idotea emarginata, the neuropeptide proctolin is contained in a single pair of motoneurones located in pereion ganglion 4. The two neurones supply dorsal extensor muscle fibres of all segments. Proctolin (1μmoll−1) potentiates the amplitude of contractures of single extensor muscle fibres elicited by 10mmoll−1 caffeine. In western blots of myofibrillar proteins isolated from single muscle fibres and treated with an anti-phosphoserine antibody, a protein with an apparent molecular mass of 30kDa was consistently found. The phosphorylation of this protein was significantly increased by treating the fibres with proctolin. After separation of myofibrillar filaments, a 30kDa protein was found only in the thin filament fraction. This protein is phosphorylated and detected by an antiserum against crustacean troponin I.
