For the identification of the cGMP-sensitive ion channel protein of frog rod outer segments (ROS), we analyzed cGMP binding proteins in the ROS by photoaffinity labeling with [ 3H]cGMP. We found three cGMP binding polypeptides (66 kDa, 92 kDa and 100 kDa) in the membrane protein fraction of ROS. cGMP binding to the 66 kDa polypeptide required the addition of 2 mM CaCl 2. We propose that this polypeptide corresponds to the cGMP-activated channel protein reported by Cook et al. [(1987) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 84, 585–589]. The 100 kDa and 92 kDa polypeptides are subunits of the cGMP phosphodiesterase. |
