摘要
Eicosanoid receptors exhibit a highly conserved ERY(C)XXV(I)XXP (L) under bar sequence in the second intracellular loop. The carboxyl end of this motif contains a bulky hydrophobic amino acid (L,I,V, or F). In human thromboxane A2 receptor (TXA(2)R), phenylalanine 138 is located at the carboxyl end of this highly conserved motif. This study examined the function of the F138 in Gr protein coupling. F138 was mutated to aspartic acid (D) and tyrosine (Y), respectively. Both mutants F138D and F138Y showed similar ligand binding activity to that of the wild type TXA(2)R. The Kd and Bmax values of either mutant were comparable to those of the wild type receptor. However, both mutants showed significant impairment of agonist induced Ca2+ signaling and phospholipase C activation. These results suggest that the F138 plays a key role in G protein coupling.
