Abstract
Human platelets, prelabeled with [32P]phospate were treated with tetradecanoylphorbol acetate (TPA) for 5 min at 37Ā°C. Phosphorylation of the components of adenylyl cyclase was determined in membranes using specific antibodies against Gāproteins and the catalytic moiety. Less than 0.01 mol of [32P]phosphate/mol could be detected in immunoprecipitates using antibodies against sequences within the Ī±āsubunit of the GTP binding protein Gi. TPA, however, caused the incorporation of 0.67ā1.1 mol of [32P]phosphate per mol of catalyst while 0.13ā0.2 mol were found in the absence or TPA. Lack of modification of the Ī±āsubunit of Gi was also indicated by the results of reconstitution experiments with purified GiĪ± from bovine brain: adenylyl cyclase in membranes from untreated platelets was significantly more inhibited by added GiĪ±, than that from TPA treated cells. While Ī²,Ī³āsubunits were likeāwise inhibitory no difference dependent on plateletāpretreatment could be observed.Keywords
