The plant used for the preparation of the extract was subjected to single darkness for 8 h, as both red and far red light inhibit flowering. The extract treated with 1% Lubrol was fractionated by gel filtration. Four species of GTP-binding proteins, GL1, GL2, GL3 and GL4 were detected with Km values 3, 7, 80 and 4 nM, respectively. GL1, GL2 and GL3 were ADP-ribosylated by pertussis toxin. The extract activated by [35S]GTP-γS in darkness, under red light or under far red light was treated with 1% Lubrol and subsequent gel filtration of the extracts made it possible to detect GTP-binding protein with a small molecular weight only in an extract labeled in darkness. The reduction in the molecular weight of GTP-binding protein from the larger molecule associated with the binding of [35S]GTPγS was confirmed by rechromatography of the larger molecule activated by [35S]GTPγS in darkness. The binding of GL2 and/or GL3 with [35S]GTPγS was suggested to be inhibited by red or far red light.}, pages = {531--535}, title = {Partial characterization and light-induced regulation of GTP-binding proteins in Lemna paucicostata.}, volume = {46}, year = {1987} }
