Influence of the amino acids of substance P in the recognition of its receptor: affinities of synthesized SP analogues for the specific 125I-BHSP binding site on rat brain synaptosomes.
Substance P analogues have been synthesized, by solid-phase methodology, in order to get a better knowledge of the structural requirements for the 125I-BHSP binding on rat brain synaptosomes. Assuming that the core of SP exists in an alpha-helicoidal structure three major points should be underlined: the SP receptor recognizes probably the side of the helix bearing the two side chains of Phe and Phe; the arginine guanidinium interacts with either a carboxylate or a phosphate function of the binding site; the C-terminal tripeptide undergoes a conformational change allowing the interactions of the C-terminal amide with a carboxylate and that of the sulfur atom with an electrophile of the binding site. The specificity of these peptides have been further estimated by comparing their binding potencies to those observed for the 125I-BHE specific binding on rat cortical synaptosomes and their bioactivities on guinea-pig ileum.
