Popis: | The human 5-HT 1Ds serotonin receptor and its rat homolog (also called the 5-HT 1B receptor) share 93% amino acid identity, yet display markedly different pharmacological specificities. Comparison of deduced amino acid sequences among these and other recently cloned receptors suggested that this phenotypic difference might be attributable to a single human threonine 355 /rat asparagine 351 amino acid difference in the putative seventh membrane spanning regions. We now report that Thr 355 Asn mutagenesis of the human S-HT 1Ds receptor alters the binding characteristics of the recombinant receptor in [ 3 H]5-HT binding assays to a profile very similar to that of the rat S-HT 1B binding site. These results confirm that this single amino acid difference is responsible for the majority of the known pharmacological discrepancies between human and rat observed for 5-HT 1Ds (S-HT 1B ) receptors. |
