摘要

The molecular determinants for selectivity of ligand binding to membranereceptors are of key importance for the understanding of cellular signalling,as well as for rational therapeutic intervention. In the present study, wetarget the interaction between the j opioid receptor (KOR) and its nativepeptide ligand dynorphin A (DynA) using solution state NMR spectroscopy,which is generally made difficult by the sheer size of membranebound receptors. Our method is based on ‘transplantation’ of an extracellularloop of KOR into a ‘surrogate’ scaffold; in this case, a soluble b-barrel.Our results corroborate the general feasibility of the method, showingthat the inserted receptor segment has negligible effects on the propertiesof the scaffold protein, at the same time as maintaining an ability to bindits native DynA ligand. Upon DynA binding, only small induced chemicalshift changes of the KOR loop were observed, whereas chemical shiftchanges of DynA and NMR paramagnetic relaxation data show conclusivelythat the peptide interacts with the inserted loop. The binding interfaceis composed of a disordered part of the KOR loop and involves bothelectrostatic and hydrophobic interactions. Even so, simultaneous effectsalong the DynA sequence upon binding show that control of the recognitionis a concerted event.
