Abstract     Membranes from porcine brain bind relatively large quantities of guanosine 5'-(3-0-thio) triphosphate (GTPgammaS), a poorly-hydrolysable analogue of GTP. Chrotnatography of solubilized proteins with 1% Sodium cholate using CIM DEAE column (Convective Interaction Media) revealed two fractions reach in GTPgammaS binding proteins. In reduced SDS-PAGE analysis only these two fractions showed a protein band with molecular mass 42 kDa which corresponded to alpha subunits Gs Gi or G11. Comparison between CIM DEAE and traditional DEAE-Sephacel methods showed that membrane bound heterotrimeric G - proteins might be isolated by HPLC using CIM supports on second or minute time scale.
