Interaction of the stimulatory and inhibitory regulatory proteins of the adenylyl cyclase system with the catalytic component of cyc-S49 cell membranes.
The mechanism by which Ns and Ni, the stimulatory and inhibitory regulatory components of adenylyl cyclases, regulate the activity of the catalytic component (C) of adenylyl cyclase was investigated using cyc-S49 cell membranes which contain a functional inhibitory regulatory protein (Ni) but not the active subunit of the stimulatory regulatory protein (Ns). To this end, purified Ns protein was preactivated (Ns) in solution with guanosine 5'-(3-O-thio)triphosphate (GTP gamma S) and Mg2+, and then added to cyc- membranes under conditions where Ni was either unactivated or activated (Ni) by GTP gamma S and Mg2+. Activation of Ni in cyc- membranes resulted in a lowered expression of Ns activity under all conditions tested. Upon dilution of the reactants (Ns and cyc- membranes) the reconstituted activity declined in proportion to the dilution with an approximate t 1/2 of 30-45 min, being unaffected by activation of Ni. Postactivation of Ni after reconstitution of cyc- membranes with Ns resulted in a time-dependent decline in Ns activity to a level that was the same as that obtained when Ns was added to cyc- membranes with preactivated Ni. These data indicated that the effects of Ns on C are of a reversible type. The following indicated that Ns and Ni affect C activity in a noncompetitive manner: (a) the per cent reduction in Ns activity due to activation of Ni was constant and independent of the concentration of Ns, (b) double reciprocal plots of activities reconstituted in control and Ni-containing cyc- membranes versus Ns concentration were linear with an unaltered apparent Km for Ns, and (c) the onset of inhibition of C prereconstituted with Ns was much faster (approximate t 1/2 = 2-5 min) than expected if it were due to occupancy of a common site on C left vacant by Ns.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
