Abstract excerpt
We have constructed mutants of the alpha subunit of Gs in an attempt to identify sites in the protein that are important for its interaction with adenylylcyclase. Some residues specific for those G proteins that activate adenylylcyclase were replaced with residues characteristic of Gi alpha. Mutant proteins were expressed in Escherichia coli, and two of these were purified to homogeneity and characterized in...
