title: The formylpeptide chemotactic receptor on rabbit peritoneal neutrophils. I. Evidence for two binding sites with different affinities.
abstract: F Met-Leu-[3H]Phe and f Nle-Leu-[3H]Phe binding to rabbit peritoneal neutrophils and purified membranes were measured at 4 degrees C silicone oil centrifugation assays, and the results were analyzed by the LIGAND computer program, which permits analysis of ligand binding to multiple classes of binding sites. LIGAND analysis of peptide binding to intact neutrophil indicated that both f Met-Leu-[3H]Phe and f Nle-Leu-[3H]Phe detected two population of binding sites. The apparent Kd values for f Met-Leu-[3H]Phe binding were 1.6 +/- 1.0 X 10(-9) M and 2.2 +/- 0.9 X 10(-8) M, respectively, and 3.1 +/- 0.2 X 10(-9) M and 1.2 +/- 0.6 X 10(-7) M for f Nle-Leu-[3H]Phe. Furthermore, the higher affinity sites detected on whole cells comprised approximately 15 to 30% of the total sites. Two populations of binding sites were also detected on purified neutrophil plasma membranes by both radiolabeled chemotactic peptides. LIGAND analysis of peptide binding to purified membranes yielded apparent Kd values of 5.0 +/- 2.5 X 10(-10) M and 4.8 +/- 0.6 X 10(-8) M for f Met-Leu-[3H]Phe binding, and 4.7 +/- 4.2 X 10(-10) M and 3.0 +/- 1.3 X 10(-8) M for f Nle-Leu-[3H]Phe. The percentage of higher affinity sites detected by f Met-Leu-[3H]Phe and f Nle-Leu-[3H]Phe on purified membranes were 1 to 5% of the total sites detected. These data are consistent either with the existence of two independent binding sites for formylpeptides on rabbit neutrophils or receptor negative cooperativity.
