The human VPAC1 receptor for VIP and PACAP is a class II Gprotein-coupled receptor (GPCR). The N-terminal ectodomain of the VPAC1 receptor plays a crucial role in VIP binding. Photoaffinity experiments clearly indicated that the 6-28 part of VIP physically interacts with the N-terminal ectodomain. Construction of a 3D model of the N-terminal ectodomain of VPAC1 receptor based on the NMR structure of the mouse CRF receptor 2 indicated the presence of short consensus repeat/Sushi domain. Docking of VIP in the N-terminal ectodomain structural model was performed taking into account the severe constraints provided by photoaffinity. A VIP-binding site was identified on the side of the structured core of the N-terminal ectodomain of the receptor.
人源的血管活性肠肽(VIP)和垂体腺苷酸环化酶激活肽(PACAP)的VPAC1受体是一种II类G蛋白偶联受体(GPCR)。VPAC1受体的N端胞外结构域在VIP结合中起关键作用。光亲和实验清楚地表明,VIP的6 - 28部分与N端胞外结构域发生物理相互作用。基于小鼠促肾上腺皮质激素释放因子(CRF)受体2的核磁共振(NMR)结构构建的VPAC1受体N端胞外结构域的三维模型表明存在短共有重复序列/寿司结构域。考虑到光亲和提供的严格限制条件,在N端胞外结构域结构模型中对VIP进行对接。在受体N端胞外结构域的结构化核心一侧鉴定出一个VIP结合位点。
