Primary structure of the α-subunit of bovine adenylate cyclase-stimulating G-protein deduced from the cDNA sequence
AbstractThe primary structure of the α-subunit of the adenylate cyclase-stimulating G-protein (Gs) has been deduced from the nucleotide sequence of cloned DNA complementary to the bovine cerebral mRNA encoding the polypeptide. Comparison of the amino acid sequences of the α-subunits of Gs and transducin reveals that some of the highly conserved regions show sequence homology with elongation factor-Tu and ras p21 proteins and correspond to functional regions of guanine nucleotide-binding proteins
