The 5-hydroxytryptamine1A (5-HT1A) receptor can bind certain beta- adrenergic receptor antagonists, such as pindolol, with high affinity. Such pharmacological cross-reactivity suggests a structural similarity in the ligand binding site between the two receptors. To identify this structural entity, we mutated Asn385 in the seventh transmembrane domain of the human 5-HT1A receptor, based on the observation that this residue is conserved in all 5-HT1A and beta-adrenergic receptors of different species but is absent in all other cloned guanine nucleotide- binding protein-coupled receptors. This single point mutation (Asn385 to valine) causes a highly selective decrease in the affinity of pindolol and other aryloxyalkylamines for the mutant receptor (about 100-fold), while producing only minor changes in the binding of other 5- HT agonists and antagonists. The results provide direct evidence that Asn385 is responsible for the high affinity interaction between 5-HT1A receptors and aryloxyalkylamine beta-adrenergic antagonists but is not required for the binding of other chemical classes of ligands.
