Key amino acids for differential coupling of alpha1-adrenergic receptor subtypes to Gs.

Abstract:

:We have established that differing effects of alpha1-adrenergic receptor (AR) subtypes on cell proliferation are due to differential coupling to the Gs/cAMP pathway; thus, both alpha1A- and alpha1B-ARs couple to Gs, while alpha1D-AR does not. To identify the region responsible for this difference in subtype-specific Gs coupling, we constructed a series of chimeric and a set of point-mutated human alpha1A- and alpha1D-ARs, and examined their signaling ability. Here, we show that the amino acid residues Thr 136 and Val138 in the intracellular loop II of the human alpha1A-AR are intimately involved with Gs coupling.
