Isolation of the Endothelin B Receptor from Bovine Lung Structure, Signal Sequence, and Binding Site
1995
Bovine lung endothelin-B receptor has been isolated in good yield with a new procedure involving the use of endothelin-1 coupled to iminobiotin with a long spacer and avidin-agarose affinity chromatography. Contrary to previous reports, evidence has been obtained that the native form of this receptor corresponds to the full-length transcript expected on the basis of cDNA clones. The binding of endothelin to a variety of shortened fragments of the full receptor suggests that the long N-terminal sequence of this receptor has very little influence on the binding of endothelin and that the main determinants of the endothelin binding site might be constituted by residues in the sixth, and possib…
Isolation of endothelin A receptor from bovine lungs.
1995
We isolated endothelin receptor A (ET A ) from bovine lungs in a single-step purification procedure using antibodies raised against synthetic peptides that correspond to extra- and intracellular domains of the rat bradykinin receptor. Two receptor species of 55 and 35 kDa were isolated and subjected to N-terminal microsequencing. The difference between the observed and expected molecular weight species suggests that bovine ET A receptor is glycosylated.
