ENTRY       EC 2.7.1.129
NAME        Myosin-heavy-chain kinase
CLASS       Transferases
            Transferring phosphorus-containing groups
            Phosphotransferases with an alcohol group as acceptor
SYSNAME     ATP:myosin-heavy-chain O-phosphotransferase
REACTION    ATP + Myosin heavy chain = ADP + Myosin heavy-chain phosphate
SUBSTRATE   ATP
            Myosin heavy chain
PRODUCT     ADP
            Myosin heavy-chain phosphate
COMMENT     The enzyme from Dictyostelium sp. brings about phosphorylation of
            the heavy chain of Dictyostelium myosin, inhibiting the actin-
            activated ATPase activity of the myosin.  One threonine residue
            in each heavy chain acts as acceptor.
