Abstract

The formyl peptide chemotaxis receptor of rabbit neutrophils and purified rabbit neutrophil plasma membranes has been identified by several affinity labeling techniques: covalent affinity cross-linking of N-formyl-Nle-Leu-Phe-Nle-125I-Tyr-Lys (125I-hexapeptide) to the membrane-bound receptor with either dimethyl suberimidate or ethylene glycol bis(succinimidyl succinate) and photoactivation of N-formyl-Nle-Leu-Phe-Nle-125I-Tyr-N epsilon-[6-[(4-azido-2-nitrophenyl)amino]hexanoyl]Lys(125I-PAL). These techniques specifically identify the receptor as a polypeptide that migrates as a broad band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide electrophoresis, with Mr 50 000-65 000. The receptor has been solubilized in active form from rabbit neutrophil membranes with the detergents 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate (CHAPS) and digitonin and from whole cells with CHAPS. Chemotaxis receptor activity was measured by the ability of the solubilized membrane material to bind 125I-hexapeptide or fMet-Leu-[3H]Phe with gel filtration or rapid filtration through poly(ethylenimine)- (PEI) treated filters as assay systems. 125I-PAL was specifically cross-linked to the same molecular weight material in the CHAPS and digitonin solubilized extract, but no specific labeling of the receptor was seen when membranes were extracted with Nonidet P-40 and Triton X-100. Therefore, although a large number of detergents are able to solubilize the receptor, it appears that some release the receptor in an inactive form. The ligand binding characteristics of fMet-Leu-[3H]Phe to the CHAPS-solubilized receptor shared properties with the membrane-bound formyl peptide receptor, both of which showed curvilinear, concave-upward Scatchard plots. Computer curve fitting with NONLIN and statistical analyses of the binding data indicated that for both the membrane-bound and solubilized receptors a two saturable sites model fitted the data significantly better (p less than 0.01) than did a one saturable site model. The characteristics of the two saturable sites model for the soluble receptor were a high-affinity site with a KD value of 1.25 +/- 0.45 nM and a low-affinity site with a KD value of 19.77 +/- 3.28 nM. A total of 35% of the two sites detected was of the higher affinity. In addition, a Hill coefficient of 0.61 +/- 0.12 was observed.
