Abstract:
:Rabbit brain synaptosomes bind the 1,4-dihydropyridine derivative (+)[3H]-PN 200-110 with an equilibrium dissociation constant of 0.04 nM and a maximal binding capacity of 400 fmol/mg of protein. Using polyclonal antibodies raised against the different components of the skeletal muscle 1,4-dihydropyridine receptor, we have demonstrated that the brain and muscle receptors share the same subunit composition comprising a large polypeptide chain of Mr 140,000 associated by disulfide bridges with a smaller peptide of Mr 32,000. These antibodies have been used in immunofluorescence staining of brain sections. They reveal a distribution of the Ca2+ channel protein similar to that of 1,4-dihydropyridine binding sites with (+)[3H]PN 200-110 by the autoradiographic technique.
