Abstract

Oligomerization of the human delta-opioid receptor and its regulation by ligand occupancy were explored following expression in HEK293 cells using each of co-immunoprecipitation of differentially epitope-tagged forms of the receptor, bioluminescence resonance energy transfer and time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer. All of the approaches identified constitutively formed receptor oligomers, and the time-resolved fluorescence studies confirmed the presence of such homo-oligomers at the cell surface. Neither the agonist ligand [d-Ala(2),d-Leu(5)]enkephalin nor the inverse agonist ligand ICI174864 were able to modulate the oligomerization status of this receptor. Interactions between co-expressed delta-opioid receptors and beta(2)-adrenoreceptors were observed in co-immunoprecipitation studies. Such hetero-oligomers could also be detected using bioluminescence resonance energy transfer although the signal obtained was substantially smaller than for homo-oligomers of either receptor type. Signal corresponding to the delta-opioid receptor-beta(2)-adrenoreceptor hetero-oligomer was increased in the presence of agonist for either receptor. However, substantial levels of this hetero-oligomer were not detected at the cell surface using time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer. These studies demonstrate that, following transient transfection of HEK293 cells, constitutively formed oligomers of the human delta-opioid receptor can be detected by a variety of approaches. However, these are not regulated by ligand occupancy. They also indicate that time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer represents a means to detect such oligomers at the cell surface in populations of intact cells.

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.
