  1. SKELETAL MUSCLE NOTES

  2. Terms • epi = upon • peri = around • endo = within or inner • mys = muscle • sarco = flesh • lemma = husk • fasci = bundle

  3. Structure of skeletal muscle fiber

  4. A sarcomere

  5. Many packages of Twizzlers = Fascicle Twizzler analogy

  6. 1 package of Twizzlers = Muscle fiber The packaging = Sarcolemma Twizzler analogy 2

  7. 1 bundle of twizzlers = myofibril Twizzler analogy 3

  8. 1 Twizzler strand = Filament Twizzler analogy 4

  9. Terms associated with skeletal muscles • Tendon- Attaches muscle to bone

  10. Ligament- Attaches bone to bone

  11. Origin- The location where the muscle is attached to the relatively immovable end of the bone

  12. Insertion- end of the muscle that is attached to the movable bone

  13. Prime mover- the muscle that provides most of the movement

  14. Synergist- muscle that assists the prime mover

  15. Antagonist- the muscle that opposes the action of the prime mover

  16. Muscle Contraction

  17. Neuromuscular Junction

  18. Neuromuscular junction animation • animation

  19. Sliding Filament theory • Boat = Myosin (thick filament) • Oar = Myosin side arm • Water = Actin (thin filament) • Life ring = Calcium

  20. Resting • ATP is bound to myosin side arm. • ATP cleaves into ADP + P (high energy)

  21. Step 1 Action potential • A nerve action potential releases acetylcholine into the synaptic cleft opening the Na+ channels. • Action potential spreads across sarcolemma releasing Ca into sarcoplasma

  22. Step 2 Myosin-actin binding • Ca binds to troponin • A shape change in troponin moves tropomyocin out of the way of actin binding site • Actin and myosin bind using energy from cleaved ATP.

  23. Step 3 Power Stroke • Side arm pivots so myosin and actin slide by each other shortening the sarcomere. • ADP and P released (low energy)

  24. Step 4 ATP binding and actin-myosin release • A different ATP molecule binds to active site. • Actin released

  25. Step 5 ATP cleavage • Return to high energy state • Cycle will repeat if Ca still available.

  26. A few thoughts • The boat (myosin) does not move far in one cycle, a muscle contraction requires many cycles • What happens if ATP is not available? • Muscle stays contracted- cramps • Why does rigor mortis occur? • ATP is not available to control Ca release so contractions are continuous 6-8 hours after death. Body relaxes 16-24 hours as enzymes break down contractile structures

  27. Sarcomere summary

  28. Final animation • animation 2 • Watch “Distonia: movie
