G-protein alpha-subunit expression, myristoylation, and membrane association in COS cells.
Myristoylation of seven different alpha subunits of guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory proteins (G proteins) was examined by expressing these proteins in monkey kidney COS cells. Metabolic labeling studies of cells transfected with cytomegalovirus-based expression vectors indicated that [3H]myristate was incorporated into alpha i1, alpha i2, alpha i3, alpha 0, alpha t, and alpha z but not al...
متن کاملFidelity of G protein b-subunit association by the G protein g-subunit-like domains of RGS6, RGS7, and RGS11
Several regulators of G protein signaling (RGS) proteins contain a G protein g-subunit-like (GGL) domain, which, as we have shown, binds to Gb5 subunits. Here, we extend our original findings by describing another GGLdomain-containing RGS, human RGS6. When RGS6 is coexpressed with different Gb subunits, only RGS6 and Gb5 interact. The expression of mRNA for RGS6 and Gb5 in human tissues overlap...
متن کاملG-Protein α-Subunit Gsα Is Required for Craniofacial Morphogenesis.
The heterotrimeric G protein subunit Gsα couples receptors to activate adenylyl cyclase and is required for the intracellular cAMP response and protein kinase A (PKA) activation. Gsα is ubiquitously expressed in many cell types; however, the role of Gsα in neural crest cells (NCCs) remains unclear. Here we report that NCCs-specific Gsα knockout mice die within hours after birth and exhibit dram...
متن کاملMyristoylation of an inhibitory GTP-binding protein alpha subunit is essential for its membrane attachment.
We transfected COS cells with cDNAs for the alpha subunits of stimulatory and inhibitory GTP-binding proteins, alpha s and alpha i1, respectively, and immunoprecipitated the metabolically labeled products with specific peptide antibodies. Cells were separated into particulate and soluble fractions before immunoprecipitation; [35S]methionine-labeled alpha s and alpha i were both found primarily ...
متن کاملHigh glucose condition down-regulates the inhibitory G-protein subunit, Gαi, in pheochromocytoma PC12 cells
Introduction: G-proteins have an important role in the cell signaling of numerous receptors. The situation of G-proteins in health and disease and their critical role in the development of diabetic side effects is an interested scientific field. Here, the changes in the expression of G-protein subunits (Gαi, Gαs and Gβ) were evaluated in hyperglycemic situation of PC12 cells as...
