Abstract | The specificity of G protein βγ signaling demonstrated by in vivo knockouts is greater than expected based on in vitro assays
of βγ function. In this study, we investigated the basis for this discrepancy by comparing the abilities of seven β 1 γ complexes containing γ 1 , γ 2 , γ 5 , γ 7 , γ 10 , γ 11 , or γ 12 to interact with α s and of these γ subunits to compete for interaction with β 1 in live human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells. βγ complexes were imaged using bimolecular fluorescence complementation,
in which fluorescence is produced by two nonfluorescent fragments (N and C) of cyan fluorescent protein (CFP) or yellow fluorescent
protein (YFP) when brought together by proteins fused to each fragment. Plasma membrane targeting of α s -CFP varied inversely with its expression level, and the abilities of YFP-N-β 1 YFP-C-γ complexes to increase this targeting varied by 2-fold or less. However, there were larger differences in the abilities
of the CFP-N-γ subunits to compete for association with CFP-C-β 1 . When the intensities of coexpressed CFP-C-β 1 CFP-N-γ (cyan) and CFP-C-β 1 YFP-N-γ 2 (yellow) complexes were compared under conditions in which CFP-C-β 1 was limiting, the CFP-N-γ subunits exhibited a 4.5-fold range in their abilities to compete with YFP-N-γ 2 for association with CFP-C-β 1 . CFP-N-γ 12 and CFP-N-γ 1 were the strongest and weakest competitors, respectively. Taken together with previous demonstrations of a role for βγ in
the specificity of receptor signaling, these results suggest that differences in the association preferences of coexpressed
β and γ subunits for each other can determine which complexes predominate and participate in signaling pathways in intact
cells. |
