Phenylephrine displacement curves for the specific binding of [3H]prazosin in the membrane fraction prepared from rabbit thoracic aorta showed high- and low-affinity sites with slope factors significantly less than unity. The irreversible alpha 1B-antagonist phenoxybenzamine shifted the binding sites to single high affinity sites with a slope factor close to unity in the presence of the metabolically stable GTP analog GTP gamma-S. These results indicate that phenoxybenzamine may have affected selectively the low affinity site to phenylephrine in the presence of GTP gamma-S.
