Effect of C-Terminal S-Palmitoylation on D2 Dopamine Receptor Trafficking and Stability.

ABSTRACT: We have used bioorthogonal click chemistry (BCC), a sensitive non-isotopic labeling method, to analyze the palmitoylation status of the D2 dopamine receptor (D2R), a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) crucial for regulation of processes such as mood, reward, and motor control. By analyzing a series of D2R constructs containing mutations in cysteine residues, we found that palmitoylation of the D2R most likely occurs on the C-terminal cysteine residue (C443) of the polypeptide. D2Rs in which C443 was deleted showed significantly reduced palmitoylation levels, plasma membrane expression, and protein stability compared to wild-type D2Rs. Rather, the C443 deletion mutant appeared to accumulate in the Golgi, indicating that palmitoylation of the D2R is important for cell surface expression of the receptor. Using the full-length D2R as bait in a membrane yeast two-hybrid (MYTH) screen, we identified the palmitoyl acyltransferase (PAT) zDHHC4 as a D2R interacting protein. Co-immunoprecipitation analysis revealed that several other PATs, including zDHHC3 and zDHHC8, also interacted with the D2R and that each of the three PATs was capable of affecting the palmitoylation status of the D2R. Finally, biochemical analyses using D2R mutants and the palmitoylation blocker, 2-bromopalmitate indicate that palmitoylation of the receptor plays a role in stability of the D2R.

Project description:The interaction of dopaminergic and cholinergic neurotransmission in, e.g., Parkinson's disease has been well established. Here, D2 receptor antagonists were used to assess changes in [18F]-FEOBV binding to the vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT) in rodents using positron emission tomography (PET). After pretreatment with either 10 mg/kg haloperidol, 1 mg/kg raclopride, or vehicle, 90 min dynamic PET scans were performed with arterial blood sampling. The net influx rate (Ki) was obtained from Patlak graphical analysis, using a metabolite-corrected plasma input function and dynamic PET data. [18F]-FEOBV concentration in whole-blood or plasma and the metabolite-corrected plasma input function were not significantly changed by the pretreatments (adjusted p > 0.07, Cohen's d 0.28-1.89) while the area-under-the-curve (AUC) of the parent fraction of [18F]-FEOBV was significantly higher after haloperidol treatment (adjusted p = 0.022, Cohen's d = 2.51) than in controls. Compared to controls, the AUC of [18F]-FEOBV, normalized for injected dose and body weight, was nonsignificantly increased in the striatum after haloperidol (adjusted p = 0.4, Cohen's d = 1.77) and raclopride (adjusted p = 0.052, Cohen's d = 1.49) treatment, respectively. No changes in the AUC of [18F]-FEOBV were found in the cerebellum (Cohen's d 0.63-0.74). Raclopride treatment nonsignificantly increased Ki in the striatum 1.3-fold compared to control rats (adjusted p = 0.1, Cohen's d = 1.1) while it reduced Ki in the cerebellum by 28% (adjusted p = 0.0004, Cohen's d = 2.2) compared to control rats. Pretreatment with haloperidol led to a nonsignificant reduction in Ki in the striatum (10%, adjusted p = 1, Cohen's d = 0.44) and a 40-50% lower Ki than controls in all other brain regions (adjusted p < 0.0005, Cohen's d = 3.3-4.7). The changes in Ki induced by the selective D2 receptor antagonist raclopride can in part be quantified using [18F]-FEOBV PET imaging. Haloperidol, a nonselective D2/? receptor antagonist, either paradoxically decreased cholinergic activity or blocked off-target [18F]-FEOBV binding to ? receptors. Hence, further studies evaluating the binding of [18F]-FEOBV to ? receptors using selective ? receptor ligands are necessary.
