Abstract excerpt
Forskolin-resistant mutants arise from Y1 mouse adrenocortical tumor cells with a frequency indicative of a mutational event at a single genetic locus and exhibit adenylyl cyclases that are resistant to activation by forskolin, corticotropin, and guanyl-5'-yl-imidodiphosphate. This study examined the levels of guanyl nucleotide-binding regulatory protein subunits (G) in plasma membranes from the...
