“…BBM (5 mg protein) were incubated with a ribosylation buffer containing (mM) either 300 potassium phosphate (pH 7), 10 thymidine, 1 ATP, 0.1 GTP, 10 MgC12, 1 EDTA and 5-100 jig of pre-activated cholera toxin (Ribeiro-Neto et al, 1985), or 25 Tris-HCl (pH 8), 10 thymidine, 1 ATP, 0.1 GTP, 1 EDTA and 1,25-5 tLg of pre-activated pertussis toxin (Ribeiro-Neto et al, 1985). Reactions were started by addition of NAD+ to a final concentration of 0.1 mM.…”
