Summary

THE NATURE AND MECHANISM OF THE FREEZE DENATURATION OF FISH MYOSIN WAS CLARIFIED BY MEASURING CHANGES IN SOLUBILITY, ATPASE ACTIVITY, AND FILAMENT RECONSTITUTING CAPACITY OVER 8 WEEKS OF STORAGE AT 253 K (20 DEG C). CARP MYOSIN WAS STORED EITHER IN THE ABSENCE OR PRESENCE OF 0.2 M SODIUM GLUTAMATE. THE RESULTS INDICATED THAT SODIUM GLUTAMATE PREVENTED THE DENATURATION AND MYOSIN APPEARED LESS RESISTANT TO FREEZE DENATURATION IN A DISSOLVED STATE THAN IN A FILAMENT STATE.
