Abstract
After ADP-ribosylation by cholera toxin which promotes dissociation of the subunits, the alpha-subunit of Gs (Gs alpha) remained strongly associated with plasma membranes of wild-type S49 cells, since its interaction with the membrane was insensitive to 1 M KCl. Its association with the membrane was partially disrupted by 6 M urea and totally abolished by treatment with alkali at pH greater than or equal to 11.5. In vitro translated Gs alpha could interact with plasma membranes from the cyc- mutant of S49 cells as revealed by its cosedimentation with the membrane fraction and incubation of reconstituted membranes with GTP gamma S did not alter anchorage of Gs alpha. The characteristics of the association of in vitro translated Gs alpha with cyc- membranes after GTP gamma S treatment, i.e. sensitivity to 1 M KCl, 6 M urea and alkali treatment, were very similar to those described for the ADP-ribosylated form in wild-type membranes. Restoration of the coupling between the adrenergic receptor and adenylate cyclase further confirmed the vectorial reconstitution of cyc- membranes by in vitro translated alpha-subunit of Gs.
