Cells were grown to mid-log phase at 37°C in Vogel and Bonner medium supplemented with 0.8% Difco nutrient broth, 0.5% glucose, 50 μg of ampicillin per ml, and 40 μg of chloramphenicol per ml. Cells from 50 ml of culture were centrifuged, washed with 25 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), and suspended in 1 ml of Tris buffer. Toluenized cells were assayed for adenylyl cyclase at 30°C as described elsewhere (7). The standard incubation mixture of 0.25 ml contained 25 mM Bicine (pH 8.5), 20 mM MgCl2, 1 mM dithiothreitol, 1 mM [α-32P]ATP (20 to 30 cpm/pmol), 1 mM cAMP, 20 mM creatine phosphate, and 50 U of creatine phosphokinase. Dipotassium phosphate (K.Pi) (pH 8.5; 20 mM) and methyl-α-d-glucopyranoside (α-MG; 1 mM) were added as indicated. At 10 and 20 min, 100-μl aliquots were withdrawn and combined with 0.2 ml of 1 N perchloric acid to terminate the reaction. The results are the averages of data from four experiments ± the standard deviations. WT, wild type.
