Abstract
The primary structure of the alpha-subunit of the adenylate cyclase-inhibiting G-protein (Gi) has been deduced from the nucleotide sequence of cloned DNA complementary to the bovine cerebral mRNA encoding the polypeptide. A much higher degree of amino acid sequence homology is observed between the alpha-subunits of Gi and transducin (68%) than between those of Gi and the adenylate cyclase-stimulating G-protein (Gs) (43%) or between those of transducin and Gs (42%).
