Platelet adenylate cyclase and phospholipase C are affected differentially by ADP-ribosylation. Effects on thrombin-mediated responses
Abstract
Thrombin stimulates phospholipase C and inhibits adenylate cyclase in human platelets. We have studied the effect of purified S1 monomer, the ADP-ribosylating subunit of pertussis toxin, on these receptor-coupled G-protein-dependent activities. ADP-ribosylation of a 41 kDa protein is associated with a marked decrease in the ability of thrombin to inhibit cyclic AMP formation, but has little effect on phospholipase C. Therefore adenylate cyclase and phospholipase C appear to be modulated by different G-proteins.
