Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)
The N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor is a ligand-gated ion channel that requires both glutamate and glycine for efficient activation. Here, a strategy combining cysteine scanning mutagenesis and affinity labeling was used to investigate the glycine binding site located on the NR1 subunit. Based on homology modeling to the crystal structure of the glutamate binding site of the 2-amino-3-(3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolyl)-propionic acid receptor GluR2, cysteines were introduced into the NR1 subunit as chemical sensors for three thiol-reactive derivatives of the competitive antagonist L-701324. After coexpressing the mutant NR1 with wild-type NR2B subunits in Xenopus oocytes, agonist-induced currents were recorded to monitor irreversible receptor inactivation by the reactive antagonists. For each derivative, glycine site-specific inactivations were observed with a distinct subset of cysteine-substituted receptors. Together these inactivating substitutions identified seven NR1 residues (Ile-385, Gln-387, Glu-388, Thr-500, Asn-502, Ala-696, and Val-717) that undergo proximity-induced covalent coupling with specific regions of the bound antagonist and disclose its mode of docking in the glycine binding pocket of the NMDA receptor. Our approach may help to unravel the structural basis of distinct NMDA receptor subtype pharmacologies.
