title: Synaptic multiprotein complexes associated with 5-HT(2C) receptors: a proteomic approach.
abstract: Membrane-bound receptors such as tyrosine kinases and ionotropic receptors are associated with large protein networks structured by protein-protein interactions involving multidomain proteins. Although these networks have emerged as a general mechanism of cellular signalling, much less is known about the protein complexes associated with G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Using a proteomic approach based on peptide affinity chromatography followed by mass spectrometry and immunoblotting, we have identified 15 proteins that interact with the C- terminal tail of the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2C (5-HT(2C)) receptor, a GPCR. These proteins include several synaptic multidomain proteins containing one or several PDZ domains (PSD95 and the proteins of the tripartite complex Veli3-CASK-Mint1), proteins of the actin/spectrin cytoskeleton and signalling proteins. Coimmunoprecipitation experiments showed that 5-HT(2C) receptors interact with PSD95 and the Veli3-CASK-Mint1 complex in vivo. Electron microscopy also indicated a synaptic enrichment of Veli3 and 5-HT(2C) receptors and their colocalization in microvilli of choroidal cells. These results indicate that the 5-HT(2C) receptor is associated with protein networks that are important for its synaptic localization and its coupling to the signalling machinery.
