Effect of halide ions on t-[35S]butylbicyclophosphorothionate binding.
The binding of t-[35S]butylbicyclophosphorothionate [( 35S]TBPS) to a site on the GABAA receptor complex is ion dependent. This study was conducted to determine the effects of ion species and concentration on the time course, affinity, and number of sites of [35S]TBPS binding. At a concentration of 200 mM ion, the time to equilibrium for [35S]TBPS binding was shortest for I-, followed by Br- less than Cl- less than F-. A similar rank order was observed for the concentration of ion required to produce half-maximal [35S]TBPS binding. Saturation binding experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of increasing ion concentration on the KD and Bmax of [35S]TBPS binding. The Bmax was independent of both ion species and concentration. The receptor affinity, however, increased with increasing concentration for each ion. Calculated maximal affinity values were not different between ions; however, the EC50 to produce those values was different among ions and ranked in the same order as that for time course and maximal binding data. Association and dissociation rates for [35S]TBPS binding were greater in I- than in Cl-. These data emphasize the importance of ion selection and incubation times on [35S]TBPS binding.
