Radiation inactivation analysis of the A\(_1\) adenosine receptor: decrease in radiation inactivation size in the presence of guanine nucleotide

Please always quote using this URN: urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-60318
  • Radiation inactivation analysis of the binding of the A1 adenosine receptor antagonist, 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine to rat brain membranes yielded a radiation inactivation size of 58 kDa. In the presence of GTPyS this was reduced to 33 kDa, in good agreement with the size of the ligand-binding subunit detected after photoaffinity labelling. The data indicate that the structural association of A\(_1\) adenosine receptors with G-protein components is altered in situ in the presence of guanine nucleotides.
