A serine residue located in the active site of myosin head (S1) was labelled by 9-anthroylnitrile, an amino group located in the central domain of S1 was labelled by 7-diethylamino-3-(4'-isothio-cyanato-phenyl)-4-methylcoumari n, a cysteine residue located near the C-terminus of S1

It has been shown that one of the 12 serine residues within the 23 kDa segment of myosin subfragment 1 can be covalently modified with a fluorescent probe 9-anthroylnitrile (ANN) [Hiratsuka, T. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264 (30), 18188-18194]. To

In order to study the conformational changes associated with formation of the stable ternary complex of myosin subfragment-1 (S-1) with ADP and orthovanadate (Vi), S-1 was fluorescently labeled with 9-anthroylnitrile, 4-fluoro-7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole, and 5-(iodoacetamido) fluorescein at the 23-, 50-, and 20-kDa

9-Anthroylnitrile was used as an achiral reagent for the derivatization of carnitine. The reagent forms UV-absorbing derivatives with the hydroxyl groups of carnitine enantiomers under very mild conditions. The derivatives were separated by high-performance liquid chromatography on an ovomucoid-conjugated column

The fluorescent probe, 9-anthroylnitrile (ANN), can selectively attach to Ser-180 at the ATP-binding site of subfragment 1 (S1) of skeletal muscle myosin [J. Biol. Chem. 278 (2003) 31891]. We have found that MgATP, MgATPgammaS, MgADP.AlF(4) or MgPP(i), but not MgADP
