Gi2 mediates alpha 2-adrenergic inhibition of adenylyl cyclase in platelet membranes: in situ identification with G alpha C-terminal antibodies.

Abstract: A panel of antibodies to synthetic decapeptides corresponding to the C termini of guanine nucleotidebinding regulatory protein (G protein) a subunits has been generated in rabbits.

“…Identification of the signal transduction pathway mediating tolerance/dependence is hampered by the ability of ORs to activate multiple inhibitory G proteins and intracellular effector systems (Gudermann et al 1992). Several experimental approaches have been employed to elucidate the specificity of signal transduction cascades in situ, such as application of site-directed anti-G protein antibodies (Simonds et al 1989), antisense strategies (Kleuss et al 1991), and over-expression of genetically modified PTXresistant inhibitory G a subunits (Leaney et al 2000). However, each of these approaches failed to define specific inhibitory AC signalling pathways most likely because of a pronounced functional redundancy between inhibitory G a subunits (Tang et al 1991;Sunahara et al 1996).…”

“…Gs antisera ('RM' and 'CSl') were obtained in rabbit after repeated immunization with a conjugate of Keyhole Limpets Hemocyanin and a synthetic peptide corresponding to the RMHLRQYELL C-terminal sequence of GSa [23,34]. 100 gg membrane proteins were separated on a 10% or 12.5% SDS-PAGE [21] and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes.…”

“…Cell membranes (5 mg/ml) were extracted with 1% Na-cholate and Gsol activity in the extract was evaluated by its ability to complement the Gscr deficiency of S49 cyc-membranes in vitro [17,22,23]. The Nacholate extract from CTr cells (100 ~1) was added to cyc-membranes (100 kg) and incubated at 30°C for 20 min with GTP (100 PM); CTs cell membranes were used as a control.…”

“…Several pertussis-toxin substrates ranging from 39 to 41 kDa have also been discovered by cDNA cloning (Suki et al, 1987;Jones & Reed, 1987): three of these have been classified as Gsa, and one as Go. Immunodetection with specific antibodies has allowed the identification of these proteins in various tissues and shows a tissue-selective expression of the various forms (Goldsmith et al, 1987(Goldsmith et al, , 1988Mitchell et al, 1989;Simonds et al, 1989). The exact function of the individual pertussis-toxin substrates is not yet known with certainty, but G. is thought to be involved in the mediation of Ca2+-channel activity (Goldsmith et al, 1988), G,a3 is able to regulate K+ channels (Codina et al, 1988) and G1a2 mediates the a2-adrenergic inhibition of AC (Simonds et al, 1989).…”
