Using newly developed methods, we recently showed that activates by recruiting it to the membrane. Using these same methods, here we show that increases the catalytic rate constant, , of . Since stimulation of by depends on an autoinhibitory element (the X-Y linker), we propose that produces partial relief of the X-Y linker autoinhibition through an allosteric mechanism. We also determined membrane-bound structures of the and complexes, which show that these G proteins can bind simultaneously and independently of each other to regulate activity. The structures rationalize a finding in the enzyme assay, that costimulation by both G proteins follows a product rule of each independent stimulus. We conclude that baseline activity of is strongly suppressed, but the effect of G proteins, especially acting together, provides a robust stimulus upon G protein stimulation.
