Several shortened peptide analogues of the N-terminal domain of GPR1, an orphan G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), were prepared and their anti-HIV-1 activities were evaluated. Some of the prepared compounds, especially sulfated derivatives, showed potent inhibitory activity against a broad range of HIV-1, including T cell-tropic, dual cell-tropic and brain-derived (BT) cell-tropic HIV-1 strains. 相似文献

GPR20 was isolated as an orphan G protein-coupled receptor from genomic DNA by PCR amplification. Although GPR20 was closely related to nucleotide or lipid receptors, the functional role of this receptor, as well as its endogenous ligand, remains unclear. Here we demonstrate that GPR20 is constitutively active in the absence of ligand, leading to continuous activation of its coupled G proteins. When GPR20 was exogenously expressed in HEK293 cells, both the basal level and the prostaglandin E(2)-induced production of cAMP were significantly decreased. A remarkable increase in [(35)S]guanosine 5'-(gamma-thio)triphosphate (GTPgammaS) binding to membrane preparations was also observed in GPR20-expressing cells. These effects of GPR20 overexpression were diminished in cells treated with pertussis toxin, suggesting that the expression of GPR20 results in the activation of G(i/o) proteins. Involvement of GPR20 in the activation of G(i/o) proteins was also supported by evidence that the disruption of a conserved DRY motif in GPR20 attenuated both [(35)S]GTPgammaS incorporation and inhibition of the prostaglandin E(2)-induced cAMP production. Knockdown of GPR20 in PC12h cells resulted in an elevation of the basal cAMP level, suggesting that the endogenous GPR20 achieves a constitutively or spontaneously active conformation. Furthermore, enhancement of [(3)H]thymidine incorporation was also observed in the GPR20-silencing cells, implying that the GPR20 expression seems to attenuate PC12h cell growth. Taken together, these data indicate that GPR20 constitutively activates G(i) proteins without ligand stimulation. The receptor may be involved in cellular processes, including control of intracellular cAMP levels and mitogenic signaling. 相似文献

G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) specifically bind and phosphorylate the agonist-occupied form of G protein-coupled receptors. To further characterize the mechanism of GRK/receptor interaction, we developed a yeast-based bioassay using strains engineered to functionally express the somatostatin receptor subtype 2 and exhibit agonist-dependent growth. Here, we demonstrate that agonist-promoted growth was effectively inhibited by co-expression with either wild type GRK2 or GRK5, whereas catalytically inactive forms of these kinases were without effect. In an effort to identify residues involved in receptor interaction, we generated a pool of GRK5 mutants and then utilized the bioassay to identify mutants selectively deficient in inhibiting agonist-promoted growth. This resulted in the identification of a large number of mutants, several of which were expressed, purified, and characterized in more detail. Two of the mutants, GRK5-L3Q/K113R and GRK5-T10P, were defective in receptor phosphorylation and also exhibited a partial defect in phospholipid binding and phospholipid-stimulated autophosphorylation of the kinase. In contrast, these mutants had wild type activity in phosphorylating the non-receptor substrate tubulin. To further characterize the function of the NH2-terminal region of GRK5, we generated a deletion mutant lacking residues 2-14 and found that this mutant was also severely impaired in receptor phosphorylation and phospholipid-promoted autophosphorylation. In addition, an NH2-terminal 14-amino acid peptide from GRK5 selectively inhibited receptor phosphorylation by GRK5 but had minimal effect on GRK2 activity. Based on these findings, we propose a model whereby the extreme NH2 terminus of GRK5 mediates phospholipid binding and is required for optimal receptor phosphorylation. 相似文献

Sulfated tyrosines at the amino terminus of the principal HIV-1 coreceptor CCR5 play a critical role in its ability to bind the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein gp120 and mediate HIV-1 entry. Human antibodies that recognize the CCR5-binding region of gp120 are also modified by tyrosine sulfation, which is necessary for their ability to neutralize HIV-1. Here we demonstrate that a sulfated peptide derived from the CDR3 region of one of these antibodies, E51, can efficiently bind gp120. Association of this peptide, pE51, with gp120 requires tyrosine sulfation and is enhanced by, but not dependent on, CD4. Alteration of any of four pE51 tyrosines, or alteration of gp120 residues 420, 421, or 422, critical for association with CCR5, prevents gp120 association with pE51. pE51 neutralizes HIV-1 more effectively than peptides based on the CCR5 amino terminus and may be useful as a fusion partner with other protein inhibitors of HIV-1 entry. Our data provide further insight into the association of the CCR5 amino terminus with gp120, show that a conserved, sulfate-binding region of gp120 is accessible to inhibitors in the absence of CD4, and suggest that soluble mimetics of CCR5 can be more effective than previously appreciated. 相似文献

The metastasis suppressor gene KiSS-1 encodes kisspeptins, the natural ligands of the orphan G protein-coupled receptor GPR54. 总被引:43,自引:0,他引:43

Natural peptides displaying agonist activity on the orphan G protein-coupled receptor GPR54 were isolated from human placenta. These 54-, 14,- and 13-amino acid peptides, with a common RF-amide C terminus, derive from the product of KiSS-1, a metastasis suppressor gene for melanoma cells, and were therefore designated kisspeptins. They bound with low nanomolar affinities to rat and human GPR54 expressed in Chinese hamster ovary K1 cells and stimulated PIP(2) hydrolysis, Ca(2+) mobilization, arachidonic acid release, ERK1/2 and p38 MAP kinase phosphorylation, and stress fiber formation but inhibited cell proliferation. Human GPR54 was highly expressed in placenta, pituitary, pancreas, and spinal cord, suggesting a role in the regulation of endocrine function. Stimulation of oxytocin secretion after kisspeptin administration to rats confirmed this hypothesis. 相似文献

Twelve G protein-coupled receptors, including chemokine receptors, act as coreceptors and determinants for the cell tropisms of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), HIV-2, and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV). We isolated HIV-1 variants from T-cell-line (T)- and macrophage (M)-tropic (i.e., dualtropic) (R5-R3-X4) HIV-1 strains and also produced six HIV-1 mutants carrying single-point amino acid substitutions at the tip of the V3 region of the Env protein of HIV-1. These variants and three mutants infected brain-derived CD4-positive cells that are resistant to M-, T-, or dualtropic (R5, X4, or R5-X4) HIV-1 strains. However, a factor that determines this cell tropism has not been identified. This study shows that primary brain-derived fibroblast-like cell strains, BT-3 and BT-20/N, as well as a CD4-transduced glioma cell line, U87/CD4, which were susceptible to these HIV-1 variants and mutants and the HIV-2ROD strain, expressed mRNA of an orphan G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), GPR1. When a CD4-positive cell line which was strictly resistant to infection with diverse HIV-1 and HIV-2 strains was transduced with GPR1, the cell line became susceptible to these HIV-1 variants and mutants and to an HIV-2 strain but not to T- or dualtropic HIV-1 strains, and numerous syncytia formed after infection. These results indicate that GPR1 functions as a coreceptor for the HIV-1 variants and mutants and for the HIV-2ROD strain in vitro. 相似文献

Peb1 is a peroxisome biogenesis mutant isolated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that is selectively defective in the import of thiolase into peroxisomes but has a normal ability to package catalase, luciferase and acyl-CoA oxidase (Zhang, J. W., C. Luckey, and P. B. Lazarow. 1993. Mol. Biol. Cell. 4:1351-1359). Thiolase differs from these other peroxisomal proteins in that it is targeted by an NH2-terminal, 16- amino acid peroxisomal targeting sequence type 2 (PTS 2). This phenotype suggests that the PEB1 protein might function as a receptor for the PTS2. The PEB1 gene has been cloned by functional complementation. It encodes a 42,320-D, hydrophilic protein with no predicted transmembrane segment. It contains six WD repeats that comprise the entire protein except for the first 55 amino acids. Peb1p was tagged with hemagglutinin epitopes and determined to be exclusively within peroxisomes by digitonin permeabilization, immunofluorescence, protease protection and immuno-electron microscopy (Zhang, J. W., and P. B. Lazarow. 1995. J. Cell Biol. 129:65-80). Peb1p is identical to Pas7p (Marzioch, M., R. Erdmann, M. Veenhuis, and W.-H. Kunau. 1994. EMBO J. 13: 4908-4917). We have now tested whether Peb1p interacts with the PTS2 of thiolase. With the two-hybrid assay, we observed a strong interaction between Peb1p and thiolase that was abolished by deleting the first 16 amino acids of thiolase. An oligopeptide consisting of the first 16 amino acids of thiolase was sufficient for the affinity binding of Peb1p. Binding was reduced by the replacement of leucine with arginine at residue five, a change that is known to reduce thiolase targeting in vivo. Finally, a thiolase-Peb1p complex was isolated by immunoprecipitation. To investigate the topogenesis of Peb1p, its first 56-amino acid residues were fused in front of truncated thiolase lacking the NH2-terminal 16-amino acid PTS2. The fusion protein was expressed in a thiolase knockout strain. Equilibrium density centrifugation and immunofluorescence indicated that the fusion protein was located in peroxisomes. Deletion of residues 6-55 from native Peb1p resulted in a cytosolic location and the loss of function. Thus the NH2-terminal 56-amino acid residues of Peb1p are necessary and sufficient for peroxisomal targeting. Peb1p is found in peroxisomes whether thiolase is expressed or not. These results suggest that Peb1p (Pas7p) is an intraperoxisomal receptor for the type 2 peroxisomal targeting signal. 相似文献

A series of synthetic peptide fragments derived from RANTES were designed, synthesized, and evaluated to determine the effect of N-terminal truncation on the ability of the lead compound Ac[Ala(10,11)]RANTES-(1-14)NH(2) to inhibit HIV-1 infectivity. Both the lead compound and the truncated analogue Ac[Ala(10,11)]RANTES-(3-14)NH(2) were able to significantly inhibit HIV-1 infectivity. These results suggest that a small synthetic peptide may be able to mimic RANTES and have the ability to prevent transmission of HIV-1. 相似文献

The chemokine receptor CXCR4 interacts with a single endogenous chemokine, CXCL12, and regulates a wide variety of physiological and pathological processes including inflammation and metastasis development. CXCR4 also binds the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein, gp120, resulting in viral entry into host cells. Therefore, CXCR4 and its ligands represent valuable drug targets. In this study, we investigated the inhibitory properties of synthetic peptides derived from CXCR4 extracellular loops (ECL1-X4, ECL2-X4 and ECL3-X4) towards HIV-1 infection and CXCL12-mediated receptor activation. Among these peptides, ECL1-X4 displayed anti-HIV-1 activity against X4, R5/X4 and R5 viruses (IC50 = 24 to 76 μM) in cell viability assay without impairing physiological CXCR4–CXCL12 signalling. In contrast, ECL2-X4 only inhibited X4 and R5/X4 strains, interfering with HIV-entry into cells. At the same time, ECL2-X4 strongly and specifically interacted with CXCL12, blocking its binding to CXCR4 and its second receptor, CXCR7 (IC50 = 20 and 100 μM). Further analysis using mutated and truncated peptides showed that ECL2 of CXCR4 forms multiple contacts with the gp120 protein and the N-terminus of CXCL12. Chemokine neutralisation was mainly driven by four aspartates and the C-terminal residues of ECL2-X4. These results demonstrate that ECL2 represents an important structural determinant in CXCR4 activation. We identified the putative site for the binding of CXCL12 N-terminus and provided new structural elements to explain the recognition of gp120 and dimeric CXCR4 ligands. 相似文献

The extracellular N-terminal domain and transmembrane domains 1 and 2 mediate oligomerization of a yeast G protein-coupled receptor 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) can form homodimers/oligomers and/or heterodimers/oligomers. The mechanisms used to form specific GPCR oligomers are poorly understood because the domains that mediate such interactions and the step(s) in the secretory pathway where oligomerization occurs have not been well characterized. Here we have used subcellular fractionation and fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) experiments to show that oligomerization of a GPCR (alpha-factor receptor; STE2 gene product) of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum. To identify domains of this receptor that mediate oligomerization, we used FRET and endocytosis assays of oligomerization in vivo to analyze receptor deletion mutants. A mutant lacking the N-terminal extracellular domain and transmembrane (TM) domain 1 was expressed at the cell surface but did not self-associate. In contrast, a receptor fragment containing only the N-terminal extracellular domain and TM1 could self-associate and heterodimerize with wild type receptors. Analysis of other mutants suggested that oligomerization is facilitated by the N-terminal extracellular domain and TM2. Therefore, the N-terminal extracellular domain, TM1, and TM2 appear to stabilize alpha-factor receptor oligomers. These domains may form an interface in contact or domain-swapped oligomers. Similar domains may mediate dimerization of certain mammalian GPCRs. 相似文献

Accurate characterization of the molecular mechanisms of the action of ligands is an extremely important issue for their appropriate research, pharmacological, and therapeutic uses. In view of this fact, the aim of the present work was to investigate the mechanisms involved in the actions of mepyramine at the guinea pig H(1) receptor stably expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells. We found that mepyramine is able to decrease the basal constitutive activity of the guinea pig H(1) receptor, to bind with high affinity to a G(q/11) protein-coupled form of the receptor and to promote a G protein-coupled inactive state of the H(1) receptor that interferes with the G(q/11)-mediated signaling of the endogenously expressed ATP receptor, as predicted by the Cubic Ternary Complex Model of receptor occupancy. The effect of mepyramine on ATP-induced signaling was specifically neutralized by Galpha(11) overexpression, indicating that mepyramine is able to reduce G protein availability for other non-related receptors associated with the same signaling pathway. Finally, we found a loss of mepyramine efficacy in decreasing basal levels of intracellular calcium at high Galpha(11) expression levels, which can be theoretically explained in terms of high H(1) receptor constitutive activity. The whole of the present work sheds new light on H(1) receptor pharmacology and the mechanisms H(1) receptor inverse agonists could use to exert their observed negative efficacy. 相似文献

Neutrophils express the G protein-coupled N-formyl peptide receptor (FPR) and its homologue FPRL1, whereas monocytes express FPR, FPRL1, and FPRL2, an orphan receptor sharing 83% amino acid identity with FPRL1. FPRL1 is a promiscuous receptor activated by serum amyloid A and by different synthetic peptides, including the hexapeptide Trp-Lys-Tyr-Met-Val-d-Met-NH(2) (WKYMVm). By measuring calcium flux in HL-60 cells transfected with FPR, FPRL1, or FPRL2, we show that WKYMVm activated all three receptors, whereas the l-conformer WKYMVM activated exclusively FPRL1 and FPRL2. The functionality of FPRL2 was further assessed by the ability of HL-60-FPRL2 cells to migrate toward nanomolar concentrations of hexapeptides. The half-maximal effective concentrations of WKYMVM for calcium mobilization in HL-60-FPRL1 and HL-60-FPRL2 cells were 2 and 80 nm, respectively. Those of WKYMVm were 75 pm and 3 nm. The tritiated peptide WK[3,5-(3)H(2)]YMVM bound to FPRL1 (K(D) approximately 160 nm), but not to FPR. The two conformers similarly inhibited binding of (125)I-labeled WKYMVm to FPRL2-expressing cells (IC(50) approximately 2.5-3 micrometer). Metabolic labeling with orthophosphoric acid revealed that FPRL1 was differentially phosphorylated upon addition of the l- or d-conformer, indicating that it induced different conformational changes. In contrast to FPRL1, FPRL2 was already phosphorylated in the absence of agonist and not evenly distributed in the plasma membrane of unstimulated cells. However, both receptors were internalized upon addition of either of the two conformers. Taken together, the results indicate that neutrophils are activated by WKYMVM through FPRL1 and that FPRL2 is a chemotactic receptor transducing signals in myeloid cells. 相似文献

It is well known that G-rich phosphorothioate oligonucleotides (G-rich PS) bind to the V3 loop of HIV-1 gp120 and inhibit HIV-1 infection. In this study, we investigated the inhibitory mechanism of a new type of G-rich PS (PS-G3T4G3) on the replication cycle of HIV-1. PS-G3T4G3 inhibits both cell to cell and cell free infections. Binding and entry assays revealed that the inhibitory step of PS-G3T4G3 occurs at the early stage of HIV-1 infection. V3 loop-specific mAb test showed that PS-G3T4G3 binds to the V3 loop and prevents its interaction with chemokine receptors. These results suggest that PS-G3T4G3 may be a novel candidate for an HIV-1 inhibitor. 相似文献

Trp-Lys-Tyr-Val-D-Met (WKYMVm) is a synthetic leukocyte-activating peptide postulated to use seven-transmembrane, G protein-coupled receptor(s). In the study to characterize the receptor(s) for WKYMVm, we found that this peptide induced marked chemotaxis and calcium flux in human phagocytes. The signaling induced by WKYMVm in phagocytes was attenuated by high concentrations of the bacterial chemotactic peptide fMLP, suggesting that WKYMVm might use receptor(s) for fMLP. This hypothesis was tested by using cells over expressing genes encoding two seven-transmembrane receptors, formyl peptide receptor (FPR) and formyl peptide receptor-like 1 (FPRL1), which are with high and low affinity for fMLP, respectively. Both FPR- and FPRL1-expressing cells mobilized calcium in response to picomolar concentrations of WKYMVm. While FPRL1-expressing cells migrated to picomolar concentrations of WKYMVm, nanomolar concentrations of the peptide were required to induce migration of FPR-expressing cells. In contrast, fMLP elicited both calcium flux and chemotaxis only in FPR-expressing cells with an efficacy comparable with WKYMVm. Thus, WKYMVm uses both FPR and FPRL1 to stimulate phagocytes with a markedly higher efficacy for FPRL1. Our study suggests that FPR and FPRL1 in phagocytes react to a broad spectrum of agonists and WKYMVm as a remarkably potent agonist provides a valuable tool for studying leukocyte signaling via these receptors. 相似文献

EBI 1, a putative lymphocyte-specific G protein-coupled peptide receptor, was induced by human herpesvirus 6 or 7 infection in CD4+ T cells, and its expression increased early after infection and reached a plateau at 48 h. The induction of the EBI 1 gene by human herpesvirus 6 or 7 infection was not mediated by soluble factors but by the virus itself. Deduced from comparisons of the amino acid sequences among members of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily, these findings suggest that EBI 1 may be a member of the leukocyte chemotactic peptide receptor family. 相似文献

CD4-derived synthetic peptide blocks the binding of HIV-1 GP120 to CD4-bearing cells and prevents HIV-1 infection 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

The T cell surface glycoprotein CD4 plays an important role in mediating cellular immunity and serves as the receptor for human immunodeficiency virus. In order to identify primary sequences within the CD4 molecule that may be involved in the binding of the HIV-I envelope, we synthesized various peptides corresponding to the V1, V2, V3, and V4 domains of CD4. We tested the ability of these peptides to block the binding of purified HIV-I gp120 to CD4+ human lymphoblastic leukemia cells (CEM) using fluorescence-activated cell sorting. One of these peptides, corresponding to CD4 amino acids (74-95), when preincubated with gp120, blocked its subsequent binding to CEM cells by 80%. A truncated form of this peptide (81-95), was found to be as efficient as the longer peptide (74-95) in inhibiting the binding of gp120 to CEM cells. The same peptide did not block the binding of OKT4A or Leu3A anti-CD4 monoclonal antibodies, which were previously shown to block HIV-I binding to CD4. The peptides were also tested for their ability to block HIV-I infection of a T cell line in vitro. Only CD4 peptide (74-95) and the shorter fragment (81-95) succeeded in protecting T cells against infection with different HIV-I strains. All the other peptides examined had no effect on gp120 binding to CEM cells and did not block syncytia formation. Goat polyclonal antibodies against the CD4 peptide (74-95) gave modest interference of gp120 binding to CEM cells. These data suggest that the CD4 region (74-95) participates in the CD4-mediated binding and/or internalization of HIV-I virion. 相似文献

The proliferative effects of gastrin on normal and malignant gastrointestinal tissues have been shown to be mediated by a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), the cholecystokinin B receptor. The c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway has been implicated in the regulation of mitogenesis by growth factors or cytokines. However, the contribution of this signaling cascade to the proliferative effects of GPCR remains largely unknown. Here, we show that cholecystokinin B receptor occupancy by gastrin leads to the activation of the JNK pathway. The mechanism involves certain protein kinase C isoforms and Src family kinases other than p60Src. The complex p130Cas/CrkII, known to be involved in JNK activation, is also activated in response to gastrin by a protein kinase C- and Src-dependent mechanism. However, gastrin-induced CrkII and JNK pathways are independent. Using a dominant negative mutant of c-Jun, we blocked the ability of gastrin to induce DNA synthesis, demonstrating a major role of the JNK pathway in the growth-promoting effect of a GPCR agonist. 相似文献
