Abstract

A 1.5 kilobase cDNA coding for the complete amino acid sequence of Gb, the substrate for ADP-ribosyltransferase in C1 and D botulinum toxins from bovine adrenal gland, has been isolated from a cDNA library of bovine adrenal gland. This cDNA encodes a polypeptide of 21,770 Da consisting of 193 amino acid residues, and the deduced amino acid sequence contains all the partial amino acid sequences reported previously (Narumiya, S., Sekine, A., and Fujiwara, M. (1988) J. Biol. Chem., 263, 17255-17257). Sequence comparison revealed that Gb is identical with the product of human rho clone 12 (rho A). The present results also confirmed our suggestion that the ADP-ribosylation occurs at Asn41 in the putative effector domain of the rho gene product.
