Medical Research Service, Dopamine D2 receptors contain a cluster of serine residues
in the fifth transmembrane domain that contribute to activation of the
receptor as well as to the binding of agonists. We used rat
D2S dopamine receptor mutants, each containing a
serine-to-alanine substitution (S193A, S194A, S197A), to investigate
the mechanism through which these residues affect activation of the
receptor. Activation of the mutant receptor S194A was abolished in an
agonist-dependent manner, such that dopamine no longer inhibited cAMP
accumulation in C6 glioma cells or activated G protein-regulated
K+ channels in Xenopus laevis oocytes,
whereas the efficacy of several other agonists was unaffected.
Dihydrexidine did not inhibit cAMP accumulation at either S193A or
S194A. The decreased efficacy of dihydrexidine at S193A and S194A and
dopamine at S194A was associated with a decreased ability to detect a
GTP-sensitive high affinity binding state for these agonists. The
ability of dopamine to stimulate
[35S]guanosine-5'-O-(3-thio)triphosphate
binding via S194A also was decreased by ~50%. Finally, constitutive
stimulation of
[35S]guanosine-5'-O-(3-thio)triphosphate
binding and inhibition of adenylate cyclase by the D2S
receptor was reduced by mutation of either S193 or S194. These data
support the existence of multiple active receptor conformations that
are differentially sensitive to mutation of serine residues in the
fifth-transmembrane domain.
