The recently identified
-aminobutyric acid type B receptors
(GABABRs) share low sequence similarity with the
metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors. Like the mGlu receptors, the
N-terminal extracellular domain (NTED) of GABABRs is
proposed to be related to bacterial periplasmic binding proteins
(PBPs). However, in contrast to the mGlu receptors, the
GABABRs lack a cysteine-rich region that links the PBP-like
domain to the first transmembrane domain. This cysteine-rich region is
necessary for the PBP-like domain of mGlu receptors to bind glutamate.
To delimit the ligand-binding domain of GABABRs, we
constructed a series of chimeric GABABR1/mGluR1 and
truncated GABABR1 receptor mutants. We provide evidence
that despite the lack of a cysteine-rich region, the NTED of
GABABRs contains all of the structural information that is
necessary and sufficient for ligand binding. Moreover, a soluble
protein corresponding to the NTED of GABABRs reproduces the
binding pharmacology of wild-type receptors. This demonstrates that the
ligand-binding domain of the GABABRs can correctly fold
when dissociated from the transmembrane domains.
