摘要

A recent tryptophan scanning of the alpha-TM3 domain of the Torpedo californica AChR demonstrated that this domain can modulate ion-channel gating [Guzman,G.,Santiago,J.,Ricardo,A.,Marti-Arbona,R.,Rojas,L.,Lasalde-Dominicci,J.(2003) Biochemistry 42,12243-12250].Here we extend the study of the alpha-TM3 domain to the muscle-type AChR by examining functional consequences of single tryptophan substitutions at five conserved positions (alphaM282,alphaF284,alphaV285,alphaA284,and alphaI290) homologous to the alpha-TM3 positions that were recently characterized in the Torpedo AChR.Similarly to the Torpedo AChR,mutations alphaM282W and V285W,which are presumed to face the interior of the protein,did not exhibit functional channel activity.Nevertheless,significant expression levels of these mutants were observed at the oocyte surface.In contrast to the Torpedo AChR,in the muscle-type AChR,tryptophan substitution at positions F284,A287,and I290 produces a significant increase in normalized macroscopic response.Single-channel recordings at low ACh concentration revealed that the increase in AChR sensitivity for the F284W,A287W,and I290W is due to an increase in the mean open duration.These results suggest that tryptophan substitution directly affects channel gating,primarily the channel closing rate.Our results suggest that residues facing the interior of the protein (i.e.,alphaM282 and alphaV285) may similary affect channel gating in Torpedo and muscle-type AChR.However,equivalent mutations (i.e.,F284W and I290W) presumably facing the lipid environment display a very different functional response between these two AChR species.
