Activation by cholera toxin of adenylate cyclase solubilized from rat liver.

Cholera toxin, or peptide A1 from the toxin, activates adenylate cyclase solubilized from rat liver with Lubrol PX, provided that cell sap, NAD+, ATP and thiol-group-containing compounds are present. The activation is abolished by antisera to whole toxin, but not to subunit B.

Involvement of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide in the action of cholera toxin in vitro.

NAD is a necessary cofactor for the activation of adenylate cyclase (ATP pyrophosphate-lyase (cyclizing), EC 4.6.1.1) by cholera toxin. Lysates of certain types of cell that hydrolyze their endogenous store of NAD after cell disruption respond poorly or not at all to cholera toxin. Lysates of pigeon erythrocytes, which lack enzymes that degrade NAD, provide a convenient and reproducible system ...

ADP ribosylation of the specific membrane protein of C6 cells by islet-activating protein associated with modification of adenylate cyclase activity.

Islet-activating protein (IAP), one of the pertussis toxins, exerted dual actions on crude membrane preparations from rat C6 glioma cells; an Mr = 41,000 membrane protein was ADP-ribosylated while GTP (and GTP-dependent isoproterenol) activation of membrane adenylate cyclase was enhanced when membranes were incubated with IaP. Both actions of IaP were dependent on the incubation time and the co...

Mechanism of adenylate cyclase activation by cholera toxin: inhibition of GTP hydrolysis at the regulatory site.

Treatment of turkey erthrocyte membranes with cholera toxin caused an enhancement of the basal and catecholamine-stimulated adenylate cyclase [ATP pyrophosphate-lyase (cyclizing), EC 4.6.1.1] activities. Both of these activities required the presence of GTP. The toxin effect on the adenylate cyclase activity concided with an inhibition of the catecholamine-stimulated guanosinetriphosphatase act...

Small fragments from the A subunit of cholera toxin capable of activating adenylate cyclase.

Exposure of cholera toxin to membrane particles prepared from sarcoma 180 cells gives rise to a variety of fragments which are capable of activating adenylate cyclase [ATP:pyrophosphate-lyase (cyclizing), EC 4.6.1.1]. A major component of these fragments has an apparent molecular weight in the 8,000-10,000 range. The smallest stimulatory fragment has a molecular weight of approximately 1400. Th...
