In cardiac muscle, depolarization occurs from within through gap junctions.Cardiac Muscle Behaves as a Single UnitFigure 18.11bNucleusNucleusI bandA bandCardiacmuscle cellSarcolemmaZ discMitochondrionMitochondrionT tubuleSarcoplasmicreticulumI bandIntercalateddisc(b)Cardiac Cells Have Simpler T-TubulesFigure 9.121ActinCross bridge formation.Cocking of myosin head.The power (working) stroke.Cross bridge detachment.Ca2+Myosincross bridgeThick filamentThin filamentADPMyosinPiATPhydrolysisATPATP243ADPPiADPPiFour Step Power Cycle or “Cross Bridge Cycle”The Power CycleA. Masking protein complex (tropomyosin) binds Ca++ released from the SR moves aside to expose head-binding sitesB. Steps of the Power Cycle1. "Cocked" myosin head binds to actin myofilament site 2. Head bends towards the M line (sarcomere center-line), pulling thin filament along and releasing ADP and P (broken ATP) for the power stroke3. ATP binds to the myosin head, causing it to detach4. Myosin head “recocks” as ATP broken down to ADP and PFigure 18.12Long absoluterefractoryperiodLong-lasting tensiondevelopment(contraction)PlateauActionpotentialTime (ms)123 Depolarization isdue to Na+ influx throughfast voltage-gated Na+channels. A positivefeedback cycle rapidlyopens many Na+channels, reversing themembrane potential.Channel inactivation endsthis phase. Plateau phase isdue to Ca2+ influx throughslow Ca2+ channels. Thiskeeps the cell depolarizedbecause few K+ channelsare open. Repolarization is due to Ca2+ channels inactivating and K+channels opening. This allows K+ efflux, which brings the membranepotential back to itsresting voltage.123Tension
