Evidence for N-formyl chemotactic peptide-stimulated GTPase activity in human neutrophil homogenates. 1984

P A Hyslop, and Z G Oades, and A J Jesaitis, and R G Painter, and C G Cochrane, and L A Sklar

Neutrophil homogenates contained a high affinity guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) that was stimulatable (+27%) by the addition of 100 nM N-formyl chemotactic peptide (CHO-pep), but not by 1 microgram X ml-1 phorbolmyristate acetate (PMA). Kinetic analysis of the stimulation demonstrated an apparent lagtime of 14.3 +/- 6.9 s between the addition of CHO-pep and the optimal GTPase stimulation. The GTPase activity (but not CHO-pep-stimulated GTPase activity) was preserved in a highly purified plasma membrane fraction of the homogenate. From these observations we suggest that both a high affinity guanine nucleotide binding protein and GTPase are closely associated with the plasma membrane CHO-pep receptor. The possibility that GTPase activity may influence guanine nucleotide regulation of adenylate cyclase during CHO-pep stimulation of neutrophils is discussed.

D011956 Receptors, Cell Surface Cell surface proteins that bind signalling molecules external to the cell with high affinity and convert this extracellular event into one or more intracellular signals that alter the behavior of the target cell (From Alberts, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2nd ed, pp693-5). Cell surface receptors, unlike enzymes, do not chemically alter their ligands.

D002474 Cell-Free System A fractionated cell extract that maintains a biological function. A subcellular fraction isolated by ultracentrifugation or other separation techniques must first be isolated so that a process can be studied free from all of the complex side reactions that occur in a cell. The cell-free system is therefore widely used in cell biology.

D044042 Receptors, Formyl Peptide A family of G-protein-coupled receptors that was originally identified by its ability to bind N-formyl peptides such as N-FORMYLMETHIONINE LEUCYL-PHENYLALANINE. Since N-formyl peptides are found in MITOCHONDRIA and BACTERIA, this class of receptors is believed to play a role in mediating cellular responses to cellular damage and bacterial invasion. However, non-formylated peptide ligands have also been found for this receptor class.
