Journal ArticleDOI
Direct modification of the membrane adenylate cyclase system by islet-activating protein due to ADP-ribosylation of a membrane protein.
Toshiaki Katada,Michio Ui +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that islet-activating protein enhances receptor-mediated GTP-induced activation of membrane adenylate cyclase as a result of ADP-ribosylation of a membrane protein, probably one of the components of the receptor-adenylatecyclase system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wortmannin as a unique probe for an intracellular signalling protein, phosphoinositide 3-kinase
TL;DR: Wortmannin is a fungal metabolite that so far has been shown to act as a selective inhibitor of phosphoinositide 3-kinase, and can therefore be used to investigate the convergence between two major cellular signalling systems: those involving G-protein-coupled receptors and those involving receptor tyrosine kinases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Subunit structure of islet-activating protein, pertussis toxin, in conformity with the A-B model.
Makoto Tamura,Katsumi Nogimori,Satoshi Murai,Motoyuki Yajima,Kiyoshi Ito,Toshiaki Katada,Michio Ui,Shin-ichi Ishii +7 more
TL;DR: IAP is an oligomeric protein consisting of an A (active) protomer (the biggest subunit) and a B (binding) oligomer which is produced by connecting two dimers by the smallest subunit in a noncovalent manner.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular cloning and sequence determination of cDNAs for alpha subunits of the guanine nucleotide-binding proteins Gs, Gi, and Go from rat brain.
Hideomi Itoh,Tohru Kozasa,Shigekazu Nagata,Shun Nakamura,Toshiaki Katada,Michio Ui,S. Iwai,E. Ohtsuka,H. Kawasaki,Koichi Suzuki +9 more
TL;DR: Cloned cDNAs encoding alpha subunits of the guanine nucleotide-binding proteins Gs, Gi, and Go were cloned and their nucleotide sequences were determined; they contain 394 and 355 amino acid residues, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
A simple structure encodes G protein-activating function of the IGF-II/mannose 6-phosphate receptor
Takashi Okamoto,Toshiaki Katada,Yoshitake Murayama,Michio Ui,Etsuro Ogata,Ikuo Nishimoto,Ikuo Nishimoto +6 more
TL;DR: The segment of residues 2410-2423 in the human IGF-II/man6PR activates Gi-2 in a manner similar to G-coupled receptors, indicating a critical role for this small region of the receptor.
