GTPase inhibiting mutations activate the α chain of G s and stimulate adenylyl cyclase in human pituitary tumours
TL;DR: A subset of growth hormone-secreting human pituitary tumours carries somatic mutations that inhibit GTPase activity of a G protein α chain, αs, which results in the activation of adenylyl cyclase, which bypasses the cells' normal requirement for trophic hormone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mutant alpha subunits of Gi2 inhibit cyclic AMP accumulation.

TL;DR: Assessment of cyclic AMP accumulation in cultured cells which stably or transiently express exogenous wild-type αi2 complementary DNA or either of two mutantαi2 cDNAs shows that putatively oncogenic mutations in αi 2 constitutively activate the protein's ability to inhibit cAMP accumulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
A mutant alpha subunit of Gi2 induces neoplastic transformation of Rat-1 cells.
TL;DR: Gip2 is an oncogene, by the criterion that it induces neoplastic transformation of Rat-1 cells, and failure of gip2 to transform NIH 3T3 cells is in keeping with clinical indications that gip1 is a tissue-selective oncogen.
