GI-ALPHA-1 BOUND TO GDP AND MAGNESIUM
Overview
The effect of Mg2+ binding on the conformation of the inactive GDP-bound, complex of the heterotrimeric G protein alpha subunit Gi alpha 1 has been, investigated by X-ray crystallography. Crystal structures of the Gi alpha, 1.GDP complex were determined after titration with 5, 10, 100, and 200 mM, Mg2+. Comparison of these structures with that of the Mg2+-free complex, revealed Mg2+ bound at the same site as observed in the structure of the, active, Gi alpha 1. GTP gamma S.Mg2+-bound complex of Gi alpha 1, with a, similar coordination scheme except for the substitution of a water, molecule for an oxygen ligand of the gamma-phosphate of Gi alpha 1.GTP, gamma S. Mg2+. In contrast to the GDP.Mg2+ complex of Gt alpha and of, other G proteins, switch I residues of Gi alpha 1 participate in ... [(full description)]
