Abstract excerpt
Transducin alpha subunit (alpha(t)1) shows extraordinarily high affinity to G protein betagamma complex. One of the betagamma-binding regions on alphat1 is the amino-terminal helix. Alanine-23 is uniquely found on alphat1 but not other members of the Gi-subfamily. Mutation of alanine-23 into serine reduced the ability of alpha(t)1 to sequester betagamma-mediated stimulation of type II adenylyl cyclase. The...
