Binding sites for inositol trisphosphate in the bovine adrenal cortex. 1985

A J Baukal, and G Guillemette, and R Rubin, and A Spät, and K J Catt

Binding sites for inositol trisphosphate (IP3) have been identified in bovine adrenal cortex, employing [32P]IP3 prepared from human erythrocytes radiolabeled with [32P]ATP. IP3 was bound to adrenal microsomes with high affinity (Kd = 5 nM) and low capacity (186 fmol/mg protein). During kinetic studies, half-maximal binding was reached in less than one min at 4 degrees C, and dissociation was even more rapid with t1/2 of about 10 sec. [32P]IP2 showed no binding to the microsomal sites, which represent putative receptors at which IP3 acts to elevate intracellular calcium concentration during the actions of peptide hormones such as angiotensin II.

D007295 Inositol Phosphates Phosphoric acid esters of inositol. They include mono- and polyphosphoric acid esters, with the exception of inositol hexaphosphate which is PHYTIC ACID. Inositol Phosphate,Phosphate, Inositol,Phosphates, Inositol
D008861 Microsomes Artifactual vesicles formed from the endoplasmic reticulum when cells are disrupted. They are isolated by differential centrifugation and are composed of three structural features: rough vesicles, smooth vesicles, and ribosomes. Numerous enzyme activities are associated with the microsomal fraction.

D000302 Adrenal Cortex The outer layer of the adrenal gland. It is derived from MESODERM and comprised of three zones (outer ZONA GLOMERULOSA, middle ZONA FASCICULATA, and inner ZONA RETICULARIS) with each producing various steroids preferentially, such as ALDOSTERONE; HYDROCORTISONE; DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE; and ANDROSTENEDIONE. Adrenal cortex function is regulated by pituitary ADRENOCORTICOTROPIN. Cortex, Adrenal
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
