To delineate the specific regions of phospholipase C beta 2 (PLC beta 2) involved in binding and activation by G protein beta gamma subunits, we synthesized peptides corresponding to segments of PLC beta 2, Two overlapping peptides corresponding to Asn-564-Lys-583 (N20K) and Glu-574-Lys-593 (E20K) inhibited the activation of PLC beta 2 by beta gamma subunits (IC50 50 and 150 mu M, respectively), whereas two control peptides did not, N20K and E20K, but not the control peptides, inhibited beta gamma-dependent ADP-ribosylation of G alpha(i1) by pertussis toxin and beta gamma-dependent activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase, To demonstrate direct binding of the peptides to beta gamma subunits, the peptides were chemically cross-linked to purified beta(1) gamma(2). N20K and E20K cross-linked to both beta(1) and gamma(2) subunits, whereas the control peptides did not, Cross-linking to beta and gamma was inhibited by incubation with excess PLC beta 2 or PLC beta 3, whereas cross-linking to gamma but not beta was inhibited by r-myr-alpha(i1). These data together demonstrate specificity of N20K and E20K for G beta gamma binding and inhibition of effector activation by beta gamma subunits, The results suggest that an overlapping region of the two active peptides, Glu-574-Lys-583, mimics a region of PLC beta 2 that is involved in binding to beta gamma subunits, Changing a tyrosine to a glutamine in this overlapping region of the peptides inhibited binding of the peptide to beta gamma subunits, Alignment of these peptides with the three-dimensional structure from PLC delta 1 identifies a putative alpha helical region on the surface of the catalytic domain of PLC beta 2 that could interact with beta gamma subunits.
