Expression of myosin heavy chain (MHC) was investigated in rat uterus during pregnancy. Two MHC isoforms, SM MHCI (204 kDa) and SM MHCII (200 kDa), were resolved following the analysis of Guba Straub extract of non-pregnant and pregnant uterus using sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Whereas SM MHCI showed an increase from 69.26 +/- 3.26% in nonpregnant uterus to 81.40 +/- 5.36% in pregnant uterus, the SM MHCII exhibited a corresponding decline from 30.73 +/- 3.29 to 18.59 +/- 5.36%. The native myosin separated under non-dissociating conditions and subsequently analyzed in denaturing SDS-PAGE also demonstrated two MHC isoforms with identical electrophoretic mobilities. A SDS-PAGE analysis of native myosin from pregnant rats extracted at room temperature and in the absence of proteolytic inhibitors revealed a characteristically increased proteolysis of MHC into two peptide products of 153 and 140 kDa during pregnancy. Such a proteolysis of MHC, but in very low proportions, was noticed in nonpregnant uterus too.
