Abstract excerpt
Chinese hamster embryonic fibroblasts (IIC9 cells) express the Galpha subunits Galphas, Galphai2, Galphai3, Galphao, Galpha(q/11), and Galpha13. Consistent with reports in other cell types, alpha-thrombin stimulates a subset of the expressed G proteins in IIC9 cells, namely Gi2, G13, and Gq as measured by an in vitro membrane [35S]guanosine 5'-O-(3-thio)triphosphate binding assay. Using specific Galpha peptides,...
