title: Truncation of the carboxyl-terminal region of the rat parathyroid hormone (PTH)/PTH-related peptide receptor enhances PTH stimulation of adenylyl cyclase but not phospholipase C.
abstract: The functional role of the rat parathyroid hormone(PTH)/PTH-related peptide (PTHrP) receptor's carboxyl-terminal region was characterized by comparing the binding and signaling properties of receptors that have 78 and 111 amino acid deletions (R513 and R480, respectively), with those of the 591-amino acid wild-type (WT) receptor. R480 and R513 have 4- and 1.5-fold lower apparent Kd values for rat PTH-(1-34) (rPTH), compared with the WT receptor (WT, 1.81 +/- 0.19 nM; R513, 1.24 +/- 0.12 nM; R480, 0.48 +/- 0.05 nM, mean +/- S.E.). PTH (100 nM)-stimulated cAMP accumulation and polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis both correlated positively with receptor expression. However, whereas PTH-stimulated polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis was indistinguishable among WT and either truncated mutant at comparable levels of expressed receptors, maximal PTH-stimulated cAMP accumulation was 4-6- and 2-3-fold higher in cells expressing R480 and R513, respectively. Furthermore, pretreatment of COS-7 cells with 100 ng/ml of pertussis toxin (PTX) enhanced PTH-stimulated cAMP accumulation in cells expressing the WT receptor, but failed to do so in cells expressing either R480 or R513. Thus, sequences in the PTH/PTHrP receptor's carboxyl-terminal tail lower the affinity of the WT receptor for agonist; directly interact with, or indirectly facilitate the interaction of the receptor with a PTX-sensitive G protein that inhibits adenylyl cyclase; and decrease the efficacy with which the receptor interacts with Gs.
