Question

BMD (2,3-butanedione 2-monoximime) inhibits myosin, such that ATP can bind to myosin but myosin is unable to hydrolyze the bound ATP. What effect would BMD have on the cross bridge cycle? O Tropomyosin would not move, and the active sites on actin would not be exposed. O Myosin heads would remain detached, unable to cock. O Myosin heads would remain attached to actin, unable to detach. O Myosin heads would remain attached to actin, unable to perform the power stroke.
