GTP-induced conformational changes in septins and implications for function.
Septins constitute a group of GTP-binding proteins involved in cytokinesis and other essential cellular functions. They form heterooligomeric complexes that polymerize into nonpolar filaments and are dynamic during different stages of the cell cycle. Posttranslational modifications and interacting partners are widely accepted regulators of septin filament function, but the contribution of nucle...
متن کاملInteractions between photoexcited rhodopsin and GTP-binding protein: kinetic and stoichiometric analyses from light-scattering changes.
In rod outer segments, photoexcited rhodopsin (R*) activates a cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase through a sequence of reactions involving a GTP-binding protein. By measuring light-scattering changes above 700 nm, we have studied the kinetics and stoichiometry of the association of R* with this protein and of the dissociation of the complex upon GDP/GTP exchange. Two light-scattering signals were ob...
متن کاملThe effect of limited proteolysis on GTP-dependent Ca2+ efflux and GTP-dependent fusion in rat liver microsomal vesicles.
1. Limited proteolytic digestion of rat liver microsomes (microsomal fractions) with trypsin (5 micrograms/ml), proteinase K (1.0 microgram/ml) and Pronase (20 micrograms/ml final concns.) resulted in abolition of GTP-dependent vesicle fusion. 2. Vesicle fusion could be partially restored to microsomes which had undergone limited tryptic digestion, by the addition of untreated microsomal vesicl...
متن کامل13y subunits of trimeric GTP-binding protein
Cotransfection assays were used to show that the members of the GTP-binding protein Gq class of a subunits could activate phospholipase C (PLC) 12. Similar experiments also demonstrated that G1lyi, G,Blys, and G(32y5 could activate the 1B2 isoform ofPLC but not the p1 isoform, while G1%2v1 did not activate PLC B2. To determine which portions of PLC 32 are required for activation by G13vor Ga, a...
متن کاملDynamin: a microtubule-associated GTP-binding protein.
We recently identified dynamin as a third nucleotide-sensitive microtubule-associated protein in brain tissue, in addition to kinesin and cytoplasmic dynein. Molecular cloning analysis has revealed that dynamin contains the three consensus elements characteristic of GTP-binding proteins, and biochemical results support a role for GTP in dynamin function. Dynamin is also homologous to the Mx pro...
