Fluoride is not an activator of the smaller (20-25 kDa) GTP-binding proteins
Abstract
Effects of aluminum, magnesium, and fluoride (AMF) on members of both the trimeric G protein and smaller (20-25 kDa) monomeric GTP-binding protein families were examined. The dissociation of GDP from G proteins was blocked by AMF but was unchanged with the addition of AMF to any of six of the monomeric GTP-binding proteins. Biochemical activities and properties of one of the smaller GTP-binding proteins, ADP-ribosylation factor, were also found to be unaffected by AMF. It is concluded that the ability of AMF to activate the trimeric G proteins is not shared by the smaller GTP-binding proteins and thus should prove to be a useful discriminator between cellular activities regulated by these two families of regulatory proteins.
