Age changes in the subunits composition were comparatively studied for protein, ATPase activity, sensitivity to Ca2+ in low concentrations and alkaline activation of ATPase of natural actomyosin of skeletal muscles and myocardium in cattle feti. A rise in values in the process of the mentioned parameters development is established for actomyosin of skeletal muscles. The rise is especially considerable by the end of embryonic development. Correspondingly the myocardium actomyosin possesses a lower ATPase activity and higher sensitivity to Ca2+ in low concentrations. The ATPase activity rises moderately with development.
