In the retinal cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase (PDE), catalysis by the alphabeta-heterodimer is inhibited in the dark by two identical gamma-subunits and stimulated in the light by the GTP-bearing alpha-subunit of the heterotrimeric G-protein transducin (Tbetagamma-TalphaGDP). Two TalphaGTP molecules, dissociated from Tbetagamma,bind to and displace the PDEgamma subunits from their inhibitory sites on PDEalphabeta. With GTPgammaS in lieu of GTP, this association becomes persistent. Under physiological conditions, the PDEalphabeta(gammaTalpha)2 active complex stays on the membrane. But in low-salt buffers, it becomes soluble and dissociates into a partially active PDEalphabeta catalytic moiety and two PDEgamma-TalphaGTPgammaS complexes. This indicates that Talpha binds preferentially to PDEgamma. We have studied the interaction of recombinant bovine PDEgamma with purified Talpha in solution or with retinal rod outer segments (ROS) containing both Tbetagamma-TalphaGDP and PDEalphabetagamma2. When added to dark ROS, recombinant PDEgamma did not bind to inactive PDEalphabetagamma2 but extracted TalphaGDP from membrane-bound holo-transducin to form a soluble PDEgamma-TalphaGDP complex. PDEgamma also bound to purified TalphaGDP in solution. The kinetics and affinity of the interaction between PDEgamma and TalphaGDP or TalphaGTPgammaS were determined by monitoring changes in the proteins' tryptophan fluorescence. The K(d)'s for the binding of recombinant PDEgamma to soluble TalphaGTPgammaS and TalphaGDP are less-than-or-equal-to 0.1 and 3 nM, respectively. PDEgamma-TalphaGDP falls apart in 3 s. This slow dissociation means that, in situ, Talpha-PDEgamma cannot physically leave the active PDEalphabeta, since after GTP hydrolysis, an isolated Talpha-PDEgamma complex would dissociate too slowly to allow a fast PDE reinhibition by the liberated PDEgamma. When recombinant PDEgamma was added to PDE that had been persistently activated by TalphaGTPgammaS, reinhibition occurred and TalphaGTPgammaS, complexed to the native PDEgamma, was released, indicating that both had hitherto stayed bound to PDEalphabeta. The mutation W70F does not prevent recombinant PDEgamma from inhibiting PDEalphabeta but diminishes its affinity for TalphaGTP and TalphaGDP 100-fold. Thus, W70 of PDEgamma must take part in its binding to TalphaGTP and TalphaGDP. When reconstituted with [W70F]PDEgamma, PDE was fully inhibited but could no longer be activated by TalphaGTP or TalphaGTP-gammaS.
