Adenylate cyclase catalytic subunits from Neurospora crassa membranes may interact with regulatory factors from membranes of bovine retinal rod outer segments (pretreated with N-ethylmaleimide), reconstituting a heterologous system which, in the presence of light, is catalytically active in assay mixtures containing MgATP. Maximal activation was observed at 550 nm. Transducin-depleted retinal membranes were not capable of reconstituting the heterologous light-stimulated adenylate cyclase system. Addition of a transducin preparation to depleted membranes restored the reconstitution capacity of these membranes. A similar heterologous adenylate cyclase system was reconstituted with Neurospora and mouse retinal whole membranes (pretreated with N-ethylmaleimide). Membranes from mice suffering photoreceptor degeneration (rd homozygotes) did not reconstitute an heterologous adenylate cyclase system. |
