Abstract

Fluoride activation of the cGMP cascade of vision requires the presence of aluminum, and is shown to be mediated by the binding of one AlF‐4 to the GDP/GTP‐binding subunit of transducin. The presence of GDP in the site is required: AlF 4 − is ineffective when the site is empty or when GDPßS is substituted for GDP. This sensitivity to the sulfur of GDPßS suggests that AlF 4 − is in contact with the GDP. Striking structural similarities between AlF 4 − and PO 4 −1 lead us to propose that AlF 4 − mimics the role of the γ‐phosphate of GTP.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
