摘要: Choleragen (cholera toxin) activates adenylate cyclase by catalyzing ADP-ribosylation of Gs alpha, the stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding protein. It was recently found (Tsai, S.-C., Noda, M., Adamik, R., Moss, J., and Vaughan, M. (1987) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 84, 5139-5142) that a bovine brain membrane protein known as factor or ARF, which enhances also increases GTP-dependent NAD:arginine NAD:protein ADP-ribosyltransferase, NAD glycohydrolase, auto-ADP-ribosylation activities choleragen. We report here purification characterization two soluble proteins from similarly enhance alpha-dependent independent ADP-ribose transfer reactions catalyzed toxin. Like both factors are 19-kDA dependent on GTP analogues for activity. Maximal ARF effects were observed at molar ratio less than 2:1, ARF/toxin A subunit. Dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine necessary optimal alpha but inhibited choleragen A1 subunit NAD:agmatine ADP-ribosyltransferase appears directly activate in fashion. The relationships to ras oncogene products family regulatory includes remains be determined.
