The rat olfactory epithelium contains a specific water-soluble 45-kDa protein. This protein is recognized by anti-peptide antibodies which react with {alpha}-subunits of the known G-proteins. The 45-kDa protein has been isolated using DEAE-chromatography and gel-exclusion chromatography. The content of 45-kDa protein is about 2% of the total soluble proteins of the olfactory mucosa and it is located at the mucociliary surface. According to photo-affinity labeling, the 45-kDa protein possesses a high affinity to GTP and exhibits low GTP hydrolytic activity. The functions of the 45-kDa protein are discussed. Chem, Senses 21: 181–188, 1996.
