From the Thrombin activates human platelets and other
cells in part by cleaving an unusual G protein-coupled receptor.
Thrombin cleavage of this receptor's amino-terminal exodomain unmasks
a new amino terminus. This then binds intramolecularly to the body of
the receptor to trigger transmembrane signaling and activation of Gi- and Gq-like G proteins. Toward identifying
the domains responsible for thrombin receptor-G protein interactions,
we examined the signaling properties of chimeric receptors in which
thrombin receptor cytoplasmic sequences replaced the cognate sequences

2-adrenergic receptor
(
2AR) or the Gi-coupled dopamine
D2 receptor (D2R). In Xenopus
oocytes, a chimeric
2AR bearing the thrombin receptor
second cytoplasmic (C2) loop gained the ability to trigger intracellular Ca2+ release in response to adrenergic
agonist, whereas a
2AR bearing the cognate C2 loop from
the D2R did not. Similarly, in COS-7 cells, a chimeric
D2R bearing the thrombin receptor C2 loop gained the
ability to trigger phosphoinositide hydrolysis in response to
dopaminergic agonist, apparently by coupling to a Gq-like G protein. No detectable Gs coupling was seen. Thus, the
thrombin receptor C2 loop was able to confer Gq-like
coupling in several different receptor contexts. These observations
suggest that the thrombin receptor C2 loop specifies Gq
coupling by directly contacting Gq or by contributing to a
structure required for Gq coupling. The ability of the
thrombin receptor C2 loop to function in the context of the
D2R and
2AR strongly suggests that the
transmembrane switching and G protein activation strategies used by the
thrombin receptor must be very similar to those used by the
D2R and
2AR despite the thrombin receptor's
strikingly different liganding mechanism.
