125IBE binding to HA-α 1A, HA-α 1B-, and Flag-α 1D-ARs expressed alone and together
Differentially tagged α 1-AR subtypes were expressed alone or HA-α 1B- or HA-α 1A-ARs were transiently expressed in HEK293 cells stably expressing Flag-α 1D-ARs, membranes were harvested, and Bmax and KD values calculated by nonlinear regression of saturation curves of specific 125IBE binding. Estimated Bmax values for each coexpressed subtype were calculated from the fraction of high- and low-affinity binding sites for BMY7378 (see Fig. 8). Values are presented as mean ± S.E.M. of three independent transfection experiments performed in duplicate.
