- Abstract
BSTRACT Even when actomyosin dissociated into myosin and actin in the paramyosin-natural actomyosin system, the indices of gel properties increased on increasing the paramyosin content; however, their increases were smaller. Also, in the paramyosin-myosin system gels, the indices of gel properties increased on increasing the paramyosin content; however, the increases were smaller than those for the paramyosin-natural actomyosin system gels. In both systems, a high linearity was observed between each index of gel properties and paramyosin. It was likely that the paramyosin-myosin interaction did not bring about the characteristic texture of invertebrate muscle gel directly, but the binding of myosin and actin might be indispensable if the contribution of paramyosin was to occur.
