摘要:
Ionotropic glutamate receptors mediate the majority of vertebrate excitatory synaptic transmission. Although the structure of the GluR2 binding domain (S1S2) is well known (agonist binding site between two lobes), little is known about the time scales of conformational transitions or the relationship between dynamics and function. (FNMR)-F-19 (F-19-labeled tryptophan) spectroscopy was used to monitor motions in the S1S2 domain bound to ligands with varying efficacy and in the apo state. One tryptophan (Trp-671) undergoes chemical exchange in some but not all agonists, consistent with mu s-ms motion. The dynamics can be correlated to ligand affinity, and a likely source of the motion is a peptide bond capable of transiently forming hydrogen bonds across the lobe interface. Another tryptophan (Trp767) appears to monitor motions of the relative positions of the lobes and suggests that the relative orientation in the apo- and antagonist-bound forms can exchange between at least two conformations on the ms time scale.
