pubmed:abstractText |
Glutamic acid-203 of the alpha subunit of transducin (alphaT) resides within a domain that undergoes a guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-induced conformational change that is essential for effector recognition. Changing the glutamic acid to an alanine in bovine alpha(T) yielded an alpha subunit (alpha(T)E203A) that was fully dependent on rhodopsin for GTP-guanosine diphosphate (GDP) exchange and showed GTP hydrolytic activity similar to that measured for wild-type alpha(T). However, unlike the wild-type protein, the GDP-bound form of alpha(T)E203A was constitutively active toward the effector of transducin, the cyclic guanosine monophosphate phosphodiesterase. Thus, the alpha(T)E203A mutant represents a short-circuited protein switch that no longer requires GTP for the activation of the effector target phosphodiesterase.
