Purified M1 muscarinic cholinergic receptor and Gq/11 were coreconstituted in lipid vesicles. Addition of purified phospholipase C-beta 1 (PLC-beta 1) further stimulated the receptor-promoted steady-state GTPase activity of Gq/11 up to 20-fold. Stimulation depended upon receptor-mediated GTP-GDP exchange. Addition of PLC-beta 1 caused a rapid burst of hydrolysis of Gq/11-bound GTP that was at least 50-fold faster than in its absence. Thus, PLC-beta 1 stimulates hydrolysis of Gq/11-bound GTP and acts as a GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for its physiologic regulator, Gq/11. GTPase-stimulating activity was specific both for PLC-beta 1 and Gq/11. Such GAP activity by an effector coupled to a trimeric G protein can reconcile slow GTP hydrolysis by pure G proteins in vitro with fast physiologic deactivation of G protein-mediated signaling.
纯化的M1毒蕈碱胆碱能受体和Gq/11在脂质小泡中进行了共重组。添加纯化的磷脂酶C-β1(PLC-β1)可进一步将受体促进的Gq/11的稳态GTP酶活性刺激高达20倍。刺激作用取决于受体介导的GTP-GDP交换。添加PLC-β1会导致Gq/11结合的GTP迅速爆发水解,其速度比不添加时至少快50倍。因此,PLC-β1刺激Gq/11结合的GTP水解,并作为其生理调节因子Gq/11的GTP酶激活蛋白(GAP)。GTP酶刺激活性对PLC-β1和Gq/11均具有特异性。效应器与三聚体G蛋白偶联产生的这种GAP活性,可以使体外纯G蛋白缓慢的GTP水解与G蛋白介导的信号传导的快速生理失活相协调。
