Abstract excerpt
We used random mutagenesis and phenotypic rescue of adenylyl cyclase-null Dictyostelium cells to isolate loss-of-function mutations in the enzyme. Mutants were (i) catalytically inactive or (ii) resistant to chemoattractant receptor and guanosine 5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate stimulation. Both classes of mutants harbored substitutions within the cytoplasmic C1a domain. Mutations that inactivated the enzyme were often...
