Research Abstract	私共はすでにsmg p21のGDP/GTP交換反応調節蛋白質(smg GDS)のcDNAをクロ-ニングし、その一次構造を決定している。本年度、私共はsmg GDSがsmg p21のみならずc-ki-ras p21やrhoA p21にも作用することを明らかにした。また、smg GDSがc-ki-ras p21と協同して細胞のトランスフォ-メ-ションを引き起こすことも明らかにした。これらの低分子量G蛋白質はそのC末端側のシステイン残基がプレニル化され翻訳後修飾をうけることが、私共の教室を含めたいくつかの研究室から報告されている。私共はこのC末端の翻訳後修飾がsmg GDSの作用に必須であることを見出した。そこで、smg p21のC末端側のアミノ酸配列をもとにプレニル化されたC末端側ペプチドを合成してsmg GDSに対する作用を検討した。この合成ペプチドはsmg GDSと1対1の比率で結合してsmg GDSの作用を阻害した。今後はこのC末端側ペプチドを用いて細胞や個体レベルでのsmg GDSやsmg p21、c-ki-ras p21、rho p21の生理機能を解析していく予定である。一方、ras p21のC末端領域の翻訳後修飾がras p21のトランスフォ-メ-ション活性の発現に必須であることが報告されている。私共は低分子量G蛋白質の無細胞系でのプレニル化のアッセイ系を確立した。さらに、ras p21のファルネシル基転移酵素、smg p21/rhoA p21のゲラニルゲラニル基転移酵素、smg p25Aのゲラニルゲラニル基転移酵素を分離・精製した。今後はこの酵素群の活性を制御する物質を検索しこれらの低分子量G蛋白質の機能と作用機構の解明に有効利用する予定である。
