[Isolation and characteristics of cyanogen bromide peptides of transducin alpha and beta subunits]. 1985

V M Lipkin, and A N Obukhov, and A P Bogachuk, and I N Telezhinskaia, and V V Shemiakin

The alpha- and beta-subunits of the GTP-binding protein (transducin) from cattle retina were cleaved with cyanogen bromide. 21 peptides covering 90-100% of the amino acid sequence of the alpha- and beta-subunits were isolated from the hydrolyzate. Cyanogen bromide peptides complete or partial amino acid sequence was determined, the results were compared with those by Numa and coworkers [1] and Lochrie et al. [2] at the primary structure of the transducin alpha-subunit deduced from the nucleotide sequence of the cDNA. The structure by Lochrie is shown to differ much from the true structure of the alpha-subunit; probably, the investigators isolated cDNA, corresponding to the gene for some GTP-binding protein homologous to transducin, but not to the gene for the transducin alpha-subunit. The Numa's structure also contains an error. The final primary structure of the transducin alpha-subunit is given. The protein polypeptide chain consists of 349 amino acid residues and has an acetylmethionine residue as the N-terminal residue.

D010455 Peptides Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS. Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides
D010786 Photoreceptor Cells Specialized cells that detect and transduce light. They are classified into two types based on their light reception structure, the ciliary photoreceptors and the rhabdomeric photoreceptors with MICROVILLI. Ciliary photoreceptor cells use OPSINS that activate a PHOSPHODIESTERASE phosphodiesterase cascade. Rhabdomeric photoreceptor cells use opsins that activate a PHOSPHOLIPASE C cascade.

D011487 Protein Conformation The characteristic 3-dimensional shape of a protein, including the secondary, supersecondary (motifs), tertiary (domains) and quaternary structure of the peptide chain. PROTEIN STRUCTURE, QUATERNARY describes the conformation assumed by multimeric proteins (aggregates of more than one polypeptide chain). Conformation, Protein,Conformations, Protein,Protein Conformations
