Interactions between the N-terminal residues of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and the region of the PTH receptor containing the extracellular loops and transmembrane domains are thought to be critical for receptor activation. We evaluated this hypothesis by replacing the large N-terminal extracellular domain of the human type 1 PTH receptor (hP1Rc-WT) with residues 1-9 of PTH (AVSEIQLMH) using a tetraglycine linker between His-9 of the ligand and Glu-182 of the receptor near the extracellular terminus of transmembrane domain-1. Expression of this construct, hP1Rc-Tether(1-9), in COS-7 cells resulted in basal cAMP levels that were 10-fold higher than those seen in control cells transfected with hP1Rc-WT, Extending the ligand sequence to include Asn-10 and the activity-enhancing substitution of Leu-11 --> Arg yielded hP1Rc-[Arg(11)]Tether(1-11), for which we observed basal cAMP levels that were 50-fold higher than those seen with P1Rc-WT, An alanine-scan analysis of hP1Rc-[Arg(11)]Tether(1-11) revealed that Gln-6 and His-9 were not critical for autoactivation, whereas Val-2, Ile-5, and Met-8 were. The data show that tethered PTH/PTH receptors can autoactivate. Analysis of the structure-activity relationships in these tethered receptor constructs can provide new information concerning how the N-terminal residues of PTH interact with the extracellular loops and transmembrane regions of the PTH-1 receptor, particularly in regard to receptor activation.
