The activity of guanylate cyclase and that of its inhibitor present in E. coli extract, have been separated through a linear KCl gradient on DEAE-cellulose column. The activity of the inhibitor is lost after ribonuclease treatment, whereas is strengthened by addition of poly (C). Other types of RNA synthetic homopolymers do not affect the inhibitor's activity. Chromatographic analysis of the products of guanylate cyclase measured in the presence of FI and FI plus poly (C), indicated that the inhibitor has a poly (C) dependent GTPase activity.
