| Abstract | We have analyzed ligand-receptor complexes resulting from (i) the incubation of canine hepatic plasma membranes with [125I]iodoglucagon and (ii) subsequent gentle solubilization of receptor-bound ligand with digitonin. The complexes (molecular weight approximately equal to 500,000) retain the radiolabeled ligand during gel filtration and subsequent manipulation at 4 degrees C in the absence of covalent crosslinking. Affinity chromatography of the glucagon-receptor complexes on columns of wheat germ lectin linked to agarose resulted in two fractions, one of which was not bound by the column and the other of which was specifically eluted by N-acetylglucosamine. The presence of GTP during the incubation of plasma membranes with [125I]iodoglucagon caused about a 50% decrease in total ligand binding but affected only the ligand-receptor complexes that bound to wheat germ lectin. Moreover, it was found that the proportion of the two forms of ligand-receptor complexes identified by chromatography on wheat germ lectin depended on the degree of saturation of the membrane receptor. Thus, both the inhibition by glucagon of radiolabeled glucagon binding to membranes and the concomitantly decreased extent of association of the radiolabeled ligand with solubilized receptor complexes could be modeled in terms of two noninteracting receptor populations (having dissociation constants of about 0.35 and 4.94 X 10(-9) M). We conclude that (i) glucagon-receptor complexes formed on canine hepatic plasma membranes exist in two forms that differ after solubilization by digitonin in their avidities for wheat germ lectin, (ii) the high-and low-affinity binding of glucagon characteristic of hepatic plasma membranes arises from distinct receptor populations that probably differ in glycosylation, and (iii) the effect of GTP to decrease binding of glucagon to membranes arises from interactions of the nucleotide with the receptor complex that binds to wheat germ lectin. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
