PG - 2612-20 AB - Glucagon receptors have been identified and characterized in intermediate (Gi) and heavy (Gh) Golgi fractions from rat liver. At saturation, plasma membranes bound 3500 fmol of hormone/mg of membrane protein, while Gi and Gh bound 24 and 60 fmol of 125I-glucagon/mg of protein, respectively. Half-maximal saturation of binding to plasma membranes, Gi, and Gh occurred at approximately 4, 10, and 20 nM 125I-glucagon, respectively. Trichloroacetic acid precipitation of intact, but not degraded, glucagon was used to correct binding isotherms for hormone degradation. After such correction, half-maximal saturation of binding to plasma membranes, Gi, and Gh was observed in the presence of approximately 2, 7, and 14 nM hormone, respectively. After 90 min of dissociation in the absence of guanosine 5'-triphosphate (GTP), 86% of 125I-glucagon remained bound to plasma membranes, whereas only 42% remained bound to Golgi membranes. GTP significantly increased the fraction of 125I-glucagon released from plasma membranes but only slightly augmented the dissociation of hormone from Golgi fractions. 125I-Glucagon/receptor complexes solubilized from plasma membranes fractionated by gel filtration as high molecular weight (Kav = 0.16), GTP-sensitive complexes and lower molecular weight (Kav = 0.46), GTP-insensitive complexes. 125I-Glucagon complexes solubilized from Golgi membranes fractionated almost exclusively as the lower molecular weight species. The lower affinity of Golgi than plasma membrane receptors for hormone, the ability of glucagon to stimulate plasma membrane, but not Golgi membrane, adenylyl cyclase, and the near absence of high molecular weight, GTP-sensitive complexes in solubilized Golgi membranes demonstrate that plasma membrane contamination of Golgi fractions cannot account for the 125I-glucagon binding.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) FAU - Lipson, K E AU - Lipson KE FAU - Kolhatkar, A A AU - Kolhatkar AA FAU - Cherksey, B D AU - Cherksey BD FAU - Donner, D B AU - Donner DB LA - eng GR - AM 01045/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/United States GR - AM 07112/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/United States GR - AM 22121/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/United States PT - Journal Article PT - Research Support, U.S. Gov't, P.H.S.
