A Trafficking Checkpoint Controls GABAB Receptor Heterodimerization
Surface expression of GABA(B) receptors requires heterodimerization of GB1 and GB2 subunits, but little is known about mechanisms that ensure efficient heterodimer assembly. We found that expression of the GB1 subunit on the cell surface is prevented through a C-terminal retention motif RXR(R); this sequence is reminiscent of the ER retention/retrieval motif RKR identified in subunits of the AT...
متن کاملHetero-oligomerization between GABAA and GABAB receptors regulates GABAB receptor trafficking.
The neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) mediates inhibitory signaling in the brain via stimulation of both GABA(A) receptors (GABA(A)R), which are chloride-permeant ion channels, and GABA(B) receptors (GABA(B)R), which signal through coupling to G proteins. Here we report physical interactions between these two different classes of GABA receptor. Association of the GABA(B) receptor ...
متن کاملBlock of Kainate Receptor Desensitization Uncovers a Key Trafficking Checkpoint
A prominent feature of ionotropic glutamate receptors from the AMPA and kainate subtypes is their profound desensitization in response to glutamate-a process thought to protect the neuron from overexcitation. In AMPA receptors, it is well established that desensitization results from rearrangements of the interface formed between agonist-binding domains of adjacent subunits; however, it is uncl...
متن کاملUbiquitination of CXCR7 Controls Receptor Trafficking
The chemokine receptor CXCR7 binds CXCL11 and CXCL12 with high affinity, chemokines that were previously thought to bind exclusively to CXCR4 and CXCR3, respectively. Expression of CXCR7 has been associated with cardiac development as well as with tumor growth and progression. Despite having all the canonical features of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), the signalling pathways following CXC...
متن کاملHeterodimerization of serotonin receptors 5-HT1A and 5-HT7 differentially regulates receptor signalling and trafficking.
Serotonin receptors 5-HT(1A) and 5-HT(7) are highly coexpressed in brain regions implicated in depression. However, their functional interaction has not been established. In the present study we show that 5-HT(1A) and 5-HT(7) receptors form heterodimers both in vitro and in vivo. Foerster resonance energy transfer-based assays revealed that, in addition to heterodimers, homodimers composed eith...
