摘要
Squid photoreceptor membranes contain several small GTP-binding proteins (22-27 kDa) in addition to heterotrimeric G-proteins. In addition, these membranes contain several proteins which can be ADP-ribosylated by exoenzyme C-3 from Clostridium botulinum (C-3). These proteins are similar but not identical to C-3 substrates from bovine rod outer segments. It is shown that substrates of C-3 in squid photoreceptor interact with rhodopsin in a light-dependent manner. These data suggest involvement of small GTP-binding proteins in phototransduction processes in invertebrates.
