Site-Directed Mutagenesis of the Fibronectin Domains in Insulin Receptor-Related Receptor
The orphan insulin receptor-related receptor (IRR), in contrast to its close homologs, the insulin receptor (IR) and insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-IR) can be activated by mildly alkaline extracellular medium. We have previously demonstrated that IRR activation is defined by its extracellular region, involves multiple domains, and shows positive cooperativity with two synergistic site...
متن کاملSite-directed mutagenesis of the human dopamine D2 receptor.
Based on amino acid sequence and computer modeling, two conflicting three-dimensional models of the dopamine D2 receptor have been proposed. One model (Dahl et al., 1991, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 88, 8111) suggests that dopamine interacts with aspartate 80 of transmembrane (TM) 2 and asparagine 390 of TM6 with the transmembranes arranged in a clockwise manner, while a second model (Hibert et ...
متن کاملSite-directed mutagenesis of the human 5-HT1B receptor.
Site-directed mutagenesis was used to investigate the molecular interactions involved in ligand binding to the human 5-HT1B receptor. Six mutants were constructed at four positions and expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells. Substitution of the amino acid F185 in transmembrane region IV by an alanine increased the affinities of sumatriptan, methysergide and 8-hydroxy-2-(dipropylamino)tetralin...
متن کاملCreating a functional opioid alkaloid binding site in the orphanin FQ receptor through site-directed mutagenesis.
Although much has been learned about the mechanisms of ligand selectivity between different opioid receptor subtypes, little is known about the common opioid binding pocket shared by all opioid receptors. The recently discovered orphanin system offers a good opportunity to study the mechanisms involved in the binding of opioid versus nonopioid ligands. In the current study, we adopt a "gain of ...
