  • Title: Heart contains two substrates (Mr = 40,000 and 41,000) for pertussis toxin-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation that co-purify with Ns.

    Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun; 1985 Apr 30; 128(2):809-15. PubMed ID: 3922367.
    Abstract:
    Two peptides (Mr = 40,000 and 41,000) in membranes of rabbit heart are radiolabeled when the membranes are incubated in the presence of activated pertussis toxin and [32P]NAD+. The 41,000-Mr peptide appears to be the alpha subunit of the inhibitory regulatory protein of adenylate cyclase, Ni. The 40,000-Mr substrate for pertussis toxin in the heart was investigated. Purification of the stimulatory regulatory protein of adenylate cyclase, Ns, results in the co-purification of the alpha subunits of both Ns and Ni, the putative beta- (Mr = 35,000) and gamma- (Mr approximately equal to 15,000) subunits of Ns and Ni, and the additional 40,000-Mr peptide that is ADP-ribosylated by pertussis toxin. This 40,000-Mr substrate for pertussis toxin action appears to be a major N-protein of mammalian heart.
