## Myosin activation

The activation of the ${M}_{K}$ complex includes 4 $C{a}^{{2}^{+}}$ ions bonded to calmodulin and myosin light chain kinase. Side reactions include the disassociation of the kinase from the complex and interactions with binding proteins. These interactions were modeled using mass action kinetics summarized in 9 reactions from [link] .

The interactions between myosin, actin, and the activated ${M}_{K}$ complex were modeled using Henri-Michaelis-Menten Enzyme Kinetics from [link] .

## Mechanical model

A variety of models which represent SMCs and other types of cells as mass-spring systems have been developed [link] , [link] , [link] , [link] , [link] , [link] . The most comparable of these models used a single contractile element and two passive elements: one to represent the elastic actin and myosin fibers and the other to represent the adjacent muscle cells and surroundings [link] . We present a novel mechanical model of the SMC which incorporates the previously described biochemical interactions to produce a comprehensive model of SMC contraction.
