摘要
Investigation of L-alanine and D-amino acid replacement of orexin-B revealed that three L-leucine residues at the positions of 11, 14, and 15 in orexin-B were important to show selectivity for the orexin-2 receptor (OX2) over the orexin-1 receptor (OX,). L-Alanine substitution at position 11 and D-leucine substitution at positions 14 and 15 maintained the potency of orexin-B to mobilize [Ca2+](i) in CHO cells expressing the OX2, while their potency for the OX, was significantly reduced. In combined substitutions, we identified that [Ala(11), D-Leu(15)]orexin-B showed a 400-fold selectivity for the OX2 (EC50=0.13 nM) over OX1 (EC50 =52nM). [Ala(11), D-Leu(15)]orexin-B is a beneficial tool for addressing the functional roles of the OX2. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
