Abstract

Caveolae are small invaginations of the plasma membrane 50-100 nm in diameter. Since calcium channels, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors, and heterotrimeric GTP-binding proteins (G proteins) are localized in caveolae, they may participate in signal transduction by G protein-coupled receptors. Here we show that the G protein-coupled endothelin receptor subtype A (ETA) and its bound endothelin ligand are found in plasma membrane caveolae. ETA and its bound ligand coimmunoprecipitate with caveolin, a structural component of caveolae, in extracts of cells expressing transfected ETA receptors. Confocal fluorescence microscopy shows colocalization of ETA receptors and caveolin in micropatches at or near the plasma membrane, in the absence of endothelin ligands. These observations demonstrate a functional role for plasma membrane caveolae in signal transduction by this G protein-coupled receptor.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
