Membrane targeting of G-protein {alpha}ß{gamma} heterotrimers was investigated in live cells using G{alpha} and G{gamma} subunits tagged with spectral mutants of GFP. Unlike Ras proteins, Gß{gamma} contains a single targeting signal, the CAAX motif, that directed the dimer to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Endomembrane localization of farnesylated G{gamma}1, but not geranylgeraylated G{gamma}2, required carboxyl methylation. Targeting of the heterotrimer to the plasma membrane (PM) required co-expression of all three subunits, combining the CAAX motif of G{gamma} with the fatty acyl modifications of G{alpha}. G{alpha} associated with Gß{gamma} on the Golgi and palmitoylation of G{alpha} was required for translocation of the heterotrimer to the PM. Thus two separate signals, analogous to the dual-signal targeting mechanism of Ras proteins, cooperate to target heterotrimeric G-proteins to the PM via the endomembrane.
