TABLE 4

Correlations between agonist affinities in the agonist competition binding assay and potencies for GTPase activation as well as correlation between potencies in the GTPase- and AC assay The Kih and Kil values were taken from Table 1. The EC50 values for GTPase activation were taken from Table 2, and the EC50 values for AC activation were taken from Table 3. Coefficients of the various parameters were calculated for the four catecholamines studied.
