When influenza virus was mixed with antisera to its surface subunits before inoculation of cell cultures, anti-hemagglutinin antibodies neutralized infectivity but anti-neuraminidase did not. When the antisera were added after infection of cell cultures, anti-hemagglutinin and anti-neuraminidase antibodies were equally effective in reducing virus titers in culture fluids. Decreased virus titers were not due to interference of antibody with assay and were not accompanied by a reduction in the synthesis of hemagglutinin and neuraminidase subunits. Both antisera also effectively prevented in vitro virus spread. Inhibition of virus release by neuraminidase antibody appeared unrelated to its antienzyme property. Hydrolysis of N-acetyl neuraminic acid residues of infected host cells proceeded unimpaired in the presence of subunit antisera. Anti-hemagglutinin and anti-neuraminidase antibodies may act to prevent virus release by binding newly formed virus subunits to each other and to anti-genically altered cell membranes.  相似文献

The binding domains of 28 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against the alpha, beta, and delta subunits of the Torpedo acetylcholine receptor were mapped on the primary sequences of these subunits. Small peptide fragments (2000-20,000 daltons) of the purified subunits were obtained by digestion with staphylococcal V8 protease and papain, separated on a discontinuous polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic system, and electroblotted onto diaminophenyl thioether paper. The blots were probed with the various monoclonal antibodies and also with antibodies against carboxy-terminal decapeptides of the alpha, beta, and delta subunits to identify the carboxy-terminal fragments. From inspection of the binding patterns of the various antibodies to the subunits fragments and the molecular weights of these fragments, and by using the carboxy termini of the subunits as reference points, it was possible to deduce the regions on the primary sequence of each subunit in which the antibodies bound and in some cases to order the binding sites within these sequences. mAb 148, which inhibits receptor function by cross-linking receptor molecules on the cytoplasmic side, was mapped to the sequence beta 368-406. The main immunogenic region of the native receptor, which is of pathological importance in the autoimmune disease myasthenia gravis, was mapped by using mAb 210 to within 80 amino acid residues (alpha 46-127). The overall antigenic structure of alpha subunits was examined. Synthetic peptides have been used to locate determinants responsible for 83% of the antibodies in antisera to denatured alpha subunits and 46% of the antibodies to denatured alpha subunits in antisera to intact receptor. Theoretical models of the transmembrane orientation of the subunit polypeptide chains were tested by determining whether mapped monoclonal antibodies bound to the extracellular or intracellular surface of receptor-rich membranes. Our results confirm previous reports that the carboxy termini of the subunits are exposed on the intracellular surface, as is part of the region between a putative channel-forming domain (M5) and a putative membrane-spanning region (M3). However, contrary to current theoretical models, the region between M5 and the putative membrane-spanning sequence M4 also appears to be on the intracellular surface, implying that M4 and M5 are not membrane-spanning domains.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

The assembly of cytochrome oxidase was studied in isolated rat liver mitochondria and isolated rat hepatocytes labelled in vitro with L-[35S]methionine. This was achieved by studying the temporal association of radioactive subunits which are immunoabsorbed with antibodies against subunits I, II and the holoenzyme. Antibodies against the holoenzyme were shown to be highly specific for subunit V. The results show that subunit I appears in the holoenzyme late in the assembly process. No radioactive subunit I is absorbed with antiserum against subunit II or the holoenzyme (subunit V) after a 30 min pulse in either isolated mitochondria or hepatocytes. However, both antisera absorb radioactive subunits I after a 150 min chase in isolated hepatocytes. This was confirmed using antibodies against subunit I, which absorbed only radioactive subunit I after a 30 min pulse but absorbed radioactive subunits I-III and VI after a 150 min chase. Thus, the late assembly of radioactive subunit I is explained by a temporal sequence in the assembly process and not by the presence of a large, non-radioactive pool of subunit I. Using the above approach and the three specific antisera, the following temporal sequence in the assembly of cytochrome oxidase was established. Subunits II and III assemble rapidly with each other or with cytoplasmically translated subunit VI. This complex of three peptides in turn assembles slowly with subunit I or with the other cytoplasmically translated subunits. The early association of subunit VI with the mitochondrially translated subunits II and III suggests a possible role of the former in integration of the holoenzyme.  相似文献

Summary Antibodies were prepared in rabbits and sheep to rat liver ribosomes, ribosomal subunits, and to mixtures of proteins from the particles. The antisera were characterized by quantitative immunoprecipitation, by passive hemagglutination, by immunodiffusion on Ouchterlony plates, and by immunoelectrophoresis. While all the antisera contained antibodies specific for ribosomal proteins, none had precipitating antibodies against ribosomal RNA. Rat liver ribosomal proteins were more immunogenic in sheep than rabbits, and the large ribosomal subunit and its proteins were more immunogenic than those of the 40S subparticle. Antisera specific for one or the other ribosomal subunit could be prepared; thus it is unlikely that there are antigenic determinants common to the proteins of the two subunits. When ribosomes, ribosomal subunits, or mixtures of proteins were used as antigens the sera contained antibodies directed against a large number of the ribosomal proteins.Abbreviations TP total proteins—used to designate mixtures of proteins from ribosomal particles, hence TP80 is a mixtures of all the proteins from 80S ribosomes - TP60 the proteins from 60S subunits - TP40 the proteins from 40S particles  相似文献

Antibodies to Escherichia coli ribosomal protein S4 react with S4 in subribosomal particles, eg, the complex of 16S RNA with S4, S7, S8, S15, S16, S17, and S19 and the RI* reconstitution intermediate, but they do not react with intact 30S subunits. Antibodies were isolated by three different methods from antisera obtained during the immunization of eight rabbits. Some of these antibody preparations, which contained contaminant antibodies directed against other ribosomal proteins, reacted with subunits, but this reaction was not affected by removal of the anti-S4 antibody population. Other antibody preparations did not react with subunits. It is concluded that the antigenic determinants of S4 are accessible in some protein deficient subribosomal particles but not in intact 30S subunits.  相似文献

The antigenic properties of purified glycinin subunits were studied using antibodies prepared against them. Antisera against native glycinin did not react with the isolated subunits, and antibodies prepared against the purified subunits were not active against native glycinin. When native glycinin -was denatured, the antiglycinin immunoglobulins lost their ability to react with it, although the denatured complex was then recognized by antibodies against the purified subunits. Substantial structural rearrangement apparently occurred when the native complex was denatured and disaggregated. Acidic polypeptides A1a, A1b, and A2 had similar determinants as judged by their reactions against A1a and A1a antisera. The reaction of the A3 polypeptides with these antibodies was of lower intensity and in each case clear spurs of cross-reactivity were visible. No cross-reaction was detected between polypeptide A4 and either anti-A1a or A2. Anti-A3 antibodies reacted with each of the acidic polypeptides of glycinin, and distinct spurs of cross-reactivity were observed between A3 vs A1a, A3 vs A2, and A3 vs A4. B1 Antisera developed a reaction of identity between basic polypeptides B1 and B2, but reacted very weakly with B3 and B4. The acidic and basic polypeptides of glycinin were immunologically unrelated. The results demonstrated that immunological tests would successfully differentiate some members of the family of acidic subunits, and other immunoglobulins would discriminate between members of the family of basic subunits.  相似文献

The ability of five rabbit anti-acetylcholine receptor antisera to recognize the membrane-bound receptor from Torpedo californica has been investigated. Two antisera, raised against affinity-purified native receptor, react extensively with purified receptor-rich membrane vesicles. Since the membrane vesicles are impermeable to macromolecules and are oriented right side out, these two antisera recognize predominantly extracellular determinants. Two antisera against sodium dodecyl sulfate denatured receptor and one against purified delta subunit react poorly with the membrane-bound receptor. Only 10-20% of the determinants recognized by these antisera are accessible to antibodies when the receptor is membrane bound. Many of the latent sites can be exposed by permeabilizing the vesicles with saponin, by alkaline extraction of the membranes to remove peripheral proteins, or by a combination of these two treatments. These treatments neither solubilize the receptors nor interfere with their ability to undergo agonist-induced affinity changes. Subunit analysis of the sites on the membrane-bound receptor that are accessible to antibodies indicates that the alpha, beta, and delta chains possess extracellular determinants. Buried sites are present on all four of the subunits. Saponin permeabilization makes latent sites accessible on alpha and delta while alkaline extraction uncovers determinants on alpha, gamma, and delta. Treatment of membranes by both procedures reveals sites on beta, gamma, and delta that are not uncovered by either treatment alone. This study, in conjunction with results from other laboratories demonstrating that the gamma chain is extracellularly exposed, suggests that all four subunits are transmembrane proteins.  相似文献

Little is known about the specific domains of G protein beta and gamma subunits which interact with each other and with the alpha subunit. We used site-specific anti-peptide antibodies directed against beta and gamma subunits to investigate domains on beta and gamma subunits involved in alpha subunit interaction. Antibodies included four against the transducin (Gt) beta subunit (residues 1-10 = MS, 127-136 = KT, 256-265 = RA, and 330-340 = SW) and two against the gamma subunit (residues 2-12 = PV and 58-68 = PE). All antisera, when affinity-purified on peptide columns, yielded antibodies capable of recognizing the denatured cognate subunit on immunoblots, but only RA, SW, PV, and PE recognized native beta gamma t subunits. Affinity purification of MS and KT antisera on columns of immobilized native Gt yielded antibodies capable of recognizing native beta gamma t subunits. The functional effects of each antibody preparation on alpha t-beta gamma t interaction were assessed by assaying the ability of the preparations to immunoprecipitate beta gamma t subunits in the presence of excess alpha subunits and by testing the inhibition of beta gamma t-dependent ADP-ribosylation of alpha t-subunits catalyzed by pertussis toxin. On the basis of the results, we conclude that the domains on beta gamma t which may be directly involved in alpha t-beta gamma t interaction include the extreme amino terminus, residues 127-136 and 256-265 of beta t, and the carboxyl terminus of gamma t.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Abstract: Ligand-gated ion channels are oligomeric transmembrane proteins that usually contain more than one kind of monomer. The variety of monomers available to participate in oligomer formation and the apparent latitude in acceptable monomer combinations allows considerable diversity. Mechanisms for identifying the monomers comprising specific receptors are needed. We have generated affinity-purified polyclonal antisera that recognize the extracellular domain of nine neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) subunits and distinguish between them. We prepared these antisera by immunizing rabbits with bacterially expressed recombinant protein representing the N-terminal extracellular domain of each neuronal nAChR subunit followed by affinity purification of antibodies against synthetic peptides corresponding to residues 68–81 of the α1 subunit. We demonstrate subunit specificity of each affinity-purified antisera by western blots of the bacterially expressed protein and immunoblot against peptide. We further used these antibodies to demonstrate expression of neuronal nAChR subunits on the surface of transiently transfected simian kidney (COS-7) cells.  相似文献

Abstract The cellulolytic enzyme complex from Clostridium thermocellum JW 20 was purified from the cellulose to which the enzyme was bound during growth. After centrifugation and gel filtration the enzyme complex was analyzed by SDS-PAGE. Three subunits with apparent molecular weights of 195 000 Da, 97 000 Da and 72 000 Da were purified by preparative SDS-PAGE and electroelution. Polyclonal antibodies directed against these three subunits were raised in rabbits. The specificity of the antisera was tested with immunochemical methods. Cross reactions with other subunits of the cellulase complex were observed. Immunoelectron microscopy of protein-A gold labeled, resin embedded cells indicated that the three types of subunits were located in the outer region of the cytoplasm and on structures at the outside of the cell wall.  相似文献

Recently, we reported the synthesis and immunochemistry of two peptides designed, by complementarity and surface-simulation synthesis, to mimic antibody-combining sites against two antigenic sites of lysozyme. In the present work antibodies were raised against one of these peptides, which is complementary to antigenic site 3 of lysozyme, to determine whether these antibodies will react with anti-lysozyme antibodies. Radioiodinated antipeptide antibodies were bound by immunoadsorbents of the immune IgG from two goats anti-lysozyme antisera but not by adsorbents of myoglobin, non-immune goat IgG or immune IgG of antisera against cytochrome c. The binding of anti-peptide antibodies to adsorbents of anti-lysozyme antibodies was fully inhibited by free lysozyme but not by bovine serum albumin, human hemoglobin A, horse cytochrome c or bovine ribonuclease A. Thus, antisera against an antibody-combining site can be raised by immunizing with a peptide which probably does not exist in the antibody but is designed by surface-simulation synthesis to mimic an antibody-combining site.  相似文献

Two GTP-binding proteins which can be ADP-ribosylated by islet-activating protein, pertussis toxin, were purified from the cholate extract of bovine lung membranes. Both proteins had the same heterotrimeric structure (alpha beta gamma), but the alpha subunits were dissociated from the beta gamma when they were purified in the presence of AlCl3, MgCl2 and NaF. The molecular mass of the alpha subunit of the major protein (designated GLu, with beta gamma) was 40 kDa and that of the minor one was 41 kDa. The results of peptide mapping analysis of alpha subunits with a limited proteolysis indicated that GLu alpha was entirely different from the alpha of brain Gi or Go, while the 41-kDa polypeptide was identical with the alpha of bovine brain Gi. The kinetics of guanosine 5'-[3-O-thio]triphosphate (GTP[gamma S]) binding to GLu was similar to that to lung Gi but quite different from that to brain Go. On the other hand, incubation of GLu alpha at 30 degrees C caused a rapid decrease of GTP[gamma S] binding, the inactivation curve being similar to that of Go alpha but different from that of Gi alpha. The alpha subunits of lung Gi and GLu did not react with the antibodies against the alpha subunit of bovine brain Go. The antibodies were raised in rabbits against GLu alpha and were purified with a GLu alpha-Sepharose column. The purified antibodies reacted not only with GLu alpha but also with the 41-kDa protein and purified brain Gi alpha. However, the antibodies adsorbed with brain Gi alpha reacted only with GLu alpha, indicating antisera raised with GLu alpha contained antibodies that recognize both Gi alpha and GLu alpha, and those specific to GLu alpha. These results further indicate that GLu is different from Gi or Go. Anti-GLu alpha antibodies reacted with the 40-kDa proteins in the membranes of bovine brain and human leukemic (HL-60) cells. The beta gamma subunits were also purified from bovine lung. The beta subunit was the doublet of 36-kDa and 35-kDa polypeptides. The lung beta gamma could elicit the ADP-ribosylation of GLu alpha by islet-activating protein, increase the GTP[gamma S] binding to GLu and protect the thermal denaturation of GLu alpha. The antibodies raised against brain beta gamma cross-reacted with lung beta but not with lung gamma.  相似文献

Antisera raised against fusion proteins consisting of murine laminin B1 and B2 subunit sequences fused to the C-terminus of Escherichia coli beta-galactosidase were tested for their subunit specificity on Western blots of deglycosylated murine Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm (EHS) laminin. The antisera raised against B2 subunit sequences (anti-XLB2.1 and anti-XLB2.2) bound only to the EHS laminin B2 subunit. One of the antisera raised against B1 subunit sequences (anti-XLB1.2) was specific for the B1 subunit, whereas two others (anti-XLB1.1 and anti-XLB1.3) cross-reacted with the EHS laminin B2 subunit. Gold-labelled heparin-albumin was shown to bind specifically to the A subunit of deglycosylated EHS laminin on Western blots. These reagents were used to identify the homologous subunits in rat parietal-yolk-sac laminin and human placental laminin. The anti-(fusion protein) antisera identified the B1 and B2 subunits of the rat laminin, and these were similar in size to the murine EHS B subunits. Human placental laminin gave bands of 400, 340, 230, 190 and 180 kDa on reducing SDS/PAGE. The anti-(fusion protein) antisera identified the 230 and 190 kDa bands as the B1 and B2 subunits respectively. Gold-labelled heparin-albumin bound to the 400, 340 and 190 kDa bands of human placental laminin and so did not unambiguously identify a single A subunit. The human placental laminin may contain a mixture of isoforms, with alternative subunits substituting for the A subunit.  相似文献

In order to study the role of the individual subunits of yeast cytochrome c oxidase, rabbit antisera were prepared against Subunit II (a mitochondrially made polypeptide) and Subunit VI (a cytoplasmically made polypeptide). Antisera were also obtained against a mixture of the two mitochondrially made subunits (I PLUS II) and against mixtures of the following cytoplasmically made subunits: (IV PLUS VI); (V PLUS VII); and (IV PLUS V PLUS VI PLUS VII). Neither anti-II serum nor anti-VI serum cross-reacted with any of the other six subunits of cytochrome c oxidase as judged by a sensitive ring test or by double diffusion in agarose gels. Anti-II serum inhibited the oxidation of ferrocytochrome c by purified yeast cytochrome c oxidase or by freshly isolated as well as sonically fragmented yeast mitochondria. Anti-(V, VII) serum and anti-(IV, V, VI, VII) serum were also strongly inhibitory. Anti-VI serum and anti-(IV, VI) serum inhibited only weakly. If purified cytochrome c oxidase was inhibited with a saturating amount of anti-VI serum, anti-II serum elicited a further increment of inhibition, as would be expected if the inhibitory effects of these two antisera involved different antigenic sites on the holoenzyme. Each of the antisera precipitated all seven cytochrome c oxidase subunits from crude mitochondrial extracts. However, anti-VI and, particularly, anti-II were much less effective precipitants than antisera against Subunits IV to VII or antisera against the holoenzyme. These data suggest that the oxidation of ferrocytochrome c by cytochrome c oxidase required both mitochondrially as well as cytoplasmically made subunits.  相似文献

Seven protein subunits of cytochrome c oxidase from bovine heart were isolated by gel filtration in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate (subunits I, II and III) and guanidine hydrochloride (subunits V, VI and VII), and ion-exchange chromatography in 6 M urea (subunit IV) after the enzyme had been dissociated in 6 M guanidine hydrochloride. When analysed by highly cross-linked sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of urea, the apparent molecular weights were = I, 36700; II, 24300; III, 20400; IV, 17300; V, 12300; VI, 8700: and VII, 5100. Monospecific rabbit antisera were obtained against subunits I, IV, V, VI and VII and a mixture of subunits II and III. These subunit-specific antisera with the exception of anti-I serum all cross-reacted with the detergent-solubilized native oxidase. Enzymatic studies on purified oxidase indicated that immunoglobulins against subunits II + III, IV, V, VI and VII respectively caused 25, 65, 20, 30 and 25% inhibition while anti-I immunoglobulin did not inhibit the activity. The subunit-specific antisera were used to examine the arrangements of the subunits in the membrane. Enzymatic studies using bovine heart mitochondria and rat liver mitochondrial digitonin particles showed that anti-(II + III) serum, anti-V serum and anti-VII serum all inhibited the oxidase activity while the other antisera did not. On the other hand, results of using 125I-labelled immunoglobulins showed that anti-IV, anti-V and anti-VII sera were bound to the surface of inverted vesicles (matrix side) while all other antisera were not. These results indicate that cytochrome oxidase subunits II and III are situated on the outer surface, and subunit IV is exclusively on the matrix surface while subunits V and VII are exposed on both surfaces of the mitochondrial membrane. Subunits I and VI are buried within the membrane, not exposed on either side.  相似文献

The respective roles of neurofilaments (NFs), microtubules (MTs), and the microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) MAP 1B and tau on neurite outgrowth and stabilization were probed by the intracellular delivery of specific antisera into transiently permeabilized NB2a/d1 cells during treatment with dbcAMP. Intracellular delivery of antisera specific for the low (NF-L), middle (NF-M), or extensively phosphorylated high (NF-H) molecular weight subunits did not prevent initial neurite elaboration, nor did it induce retraction of existing neurites elaborated by cells that had been previously treated for 1 d with dbcAMP. By contrast, intracellular delivery of antisera directed against tubulin reduced the percentage of cells with neurites at both these time points. Intracellular delivery of anti-NF-L and anti-NF-M antisera did not induce retraction in cells treated with dbcAMP for 3 d. However, intracellular delivery of antisera directed against extensively phosphorylated NF-H, MAP1B, tau, or tubulin induced similar levels of neurite retraction at this time. Intracellular delivery of monoclonal antibodies (RT97 or SMI-31) directed against phosphorylated NF-H induced neurite retraction in cell treated with dbcAMP for 3 d; a monoclonal antibody (SMI-32) directed against nonphosphorylated NF-H did not induce neurite retraction at this time. By contrast, none of the above antisera induced retraction of neurites in cells treated with dbcAMP for 7 d. Neurites develop resistance to retraction by colchicine, first detectable in some neurites after 3 d and in the majority of neurites after 7 d of dbcAMP treatment. We therefore examined whether or not colchicine resistance was compromised by intracellular delivery of the above antisera. Colchicine treatment resulted in rapid neurite retraction after intracellular delivery of antisera directed against extensively phosphorylated NF-H, MAP1B, or tau into cells that had previously been treated with dbcAMP for 7 d. By contrast, colchicine resistance was not compromised by the intracellular delivery of antisera directed against NF-L, NF-M, or tubulin. These findings support previous studies indicating that MT polymerization mediates certain aspects of axonal neurite outgrowth and suggest that NFs do not directly participate in these events. These findings further suggest that NFs function in stabilization of the axonal cytoskeleton, apparently by interactions among NFs and MTs that are mediated by NF-H and MAPs.  相似文献

The biological properties of glycosylated (native) and deglycosylated gonadotropins are different. The immunological characteristics of antibodies prepared against deglycosylated lutropin and human chorionic gonadotropin were investigated. Distinct antibodies of rabbit polyclonal antisera against deglycosylated lutropin and deglycosylated chorionic gonadotropin were separated by affinity chromatography on divinylsulfonyl-Sepharose-immobilized hormone or antagonist columns, respectively, in successive runs. Antibodies that could discriminate between agonist and antagonistic forms of the hormones could thus be obtained. In radioimmunoassays using 125I-labeled antagonists and respective antagonist antibodies, only the deglycosylated hormones or their deglycosylated alpha-subunits showed preferential reaction. Based on recombinations using different deglycosylated subunits, it was concluded that the loss of antennary sugars in the alpha-subunits was mainly responsible for the changes that led to the formation of antagonist-specific antibodies. Only the agonist-specific antibody could neutralize hormone action. Thus, the type and extent of glycosylation appears to influence the antigenic structure of these secreted glycoproteins.  相似文献

Rat liver cytochrome c oxidase (ferrocytochrome c: oxygen oxidoreductase; EC 1.9.3.1) was separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis into 12 different polypeptide chains. Specific antisera against the holoenzyme and against purified subunits IV and VIII were used to characterize the enzyme complex. The antiserum against subunit IV precipitates from sodium dodecyl sulfate-dissociated mitochondria only subunit IV and from Triton X-100-dissolved mitochondria all 12 polypeptide chains, indicating their integral location within the enzyme complex. Different antisera against the holoenzyme only precipitate subunits IV, V and VIb from sodium dodecyl sulfate-dissociated mitochondria, suggesting the location of these subunits on the surface layer of the complex. Subunit VIII is thought to be located within the complex, since a specific antiserum does not precipitate the complex. The amino acid composition of all 12 protein subunits is different, thus excluding their origin from proteolytic degradation. The proteolytic degradation of subunit IV into IV during isolation of the enzyme was corroborated by the very similar amino acid composition of both proteins.  相似文献

Ca2+ binding has been studied in isolated heart sarcolemmal membranes using the 45Ca overlay technique. 45Ca bound to two sarcolemmal polypeptides of 125 kDa and 97 kDa in preparations from dog, rabbit, cow and pig. During fractionation on DEAE ion-exchange and wheat-germ lectin affinity columns, the two Ca2(+)-binding polypeptides copurified with the dihydropyridine receptor associated with the voltage gated Ca2+ channel. These polypeptides were the major proteins in the isolated fraction as judged by silver staining in SDS-PAGE. Antisera raised against purified dog heart, sarcolemma indicated that the 125 and 97 kDa polypeptides were highly antigenic components of this membrane. The antisera cross-reacted with similar polypeptides in cardiac sarcolemmal preparations from rabbit, cow and pig, but not sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes. Purified antibodies against the 125 kDa polypeptide did not cross-react with the 97 kDa polypeptide, while antibodies against the 97 kDa polypeptide did not cross-react with the 125 kDa polypeptide. Both the 125 kDa and 97 kDa polypeptides bound wheat-germ lectin, suggesting both were glycoproteins. It is unlikely that these Ca2+ binding glycoproteins represent subunits of the dihydropyridine receptor-Ca2+ channel in this membrane.  相似文献
