Guanine nucleotide-binding protein interacting but unstimulating sequence located in insulin-like growth factor II receptor. Its autoinhibitory characteristics and structural determinants.
RVGLVRGEKARKGK (peptide 14) from residues 2410-2423 of the human insulin-like growth factor II receptor (IGF-IIR) directly activates adenylylcyclase-inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (Gi proteins) whereas RGEKARKGK (peptide 9) has no stimulatory action. However, peptide 9 inhibited the actions of peptide 14 on both GDP release from and guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S) binding to Gi-2 in an aqueous system. Peptide 9 also inhibited peptide 14-induced Gi-1 activation with a similar profile. The peptide 9 action was competitive for peptide 14 action and determined by the first arginine residue and the C-terminal RKGK. In reconstituted IGF-IIR-Gi-2 vesicles, peptide 9 blocked the G protein stimulation by IGF-II with a potency similar to that observed in the action of peptide 9 on peptide 14; and peptide 9-induced inhibition was also observed in IGF-IIR-Gi-1 vesicles. In pertussis toxin-treated K562 cell membranes supplemented with Gi-2, peptide 9 inhibited IGF-II-induced reduction in pertussis toxin-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation of Gi-2 with an IC50 of 30 microM. This inhibitory effect of peptide 9 was competitive for the concentration of these IGF-IIR-positive/IGF-I receptor-negative cell membranes. Therefore, peptide 9 inhibits the Gi-activating function of IGF-IIR possibly by interacting with the putative peptide 14 recognition site of Gi proteins. The significance of this sequence is discussed.
