Ligand Promiscuity of Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Agonists and Antagonists Revealed by Site-Directed Mutagenesis
Open accessAbstract
The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a ligand-dependent transcription factor that can be activated by structurally diverse chemicals. To examine the mechanisms responsible for the promiscuity in AhR ligand binding, we determined the effects of mutations within the AhR ligand-binding domain (LBD) on the activity of diverse AhR ligands. Site-directed mutagenesis identified Ile319 of the mouse AhR and, to a lesser extent, Phe318 as residues involved in ligand-selective modulation of AhR transformation using a panel of 12 AhR ligands. These ligands could be categorized into four distinct structurally related groups based on their ability to activate AhR mutants at position 319 in vitro. The mutation I319K was selectively activated by FICZ and not by other examined ligands in vitro and in cell culture. F318L and F318A mutations resulted in the conversion of AhR agonists β-naphthoflavone and 3-methylcholanthrene, respectively, into partial agonists/antagonists. Hsp90 binding to the AhR was decreased with several mutations and was inversely correlated with AhR ligand-binding promiscuity. Together, these data define overlapping amino acid residues within the AhR LBD involved in the selectivity of ligand binding, the agonist or antagonist mode of ligand binding, and hsp90 binding and provide insights into the ligand diversity of AhR activators.

Studies revealed significant differences in interactions between structurally diverse ligands and residues within the AhR ligand binding domain, accounting for the observed promiscuity.
“These studies revealed significant differences in the interactions between structurally diverse ligands and residues within the AhR ligand binding domain (LBD), that account for the observed promiscuity18.”
From Modeling the binding of diverse ligands within the Ah receptor ligand binding domain (2019) · cites this paper as [18]
The Abstract and the section “Mutations of Ile319 reveal a diversity of ligand-selective mechanisms” report that changing LBD residues produces different responses to structurally diverse ligands, supporting ligand-specific interactions. But the paper presents those interactions as a possible explanation for AhR promiscuity, rather than establishing that they account for it. (LLM, conf=0.85)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe H320A mutation in mouse AHR (corresponding to H324A in porcine and H326A in human AHR) can reduce DNA-binding activity triggered by various agonists.
“Previous studies reported that the H320A mutation in mouse AHR (mAHR), located outside the PAS-B pocket (corresponding to H324A in porcine and H326A in human AHR), could reduce DNA-binding activity triggered by various agonists39.”

The Results (Fig. 2B–C; page unavailable) test mouse H320A for ligand-dependent DNA binding and report that it was activated by every compound in the panel except ANF. The cited paper does not give the claimed porcine H324A or human H326A correspondences, and the retrieved text does not establish that H320 lies outside the PAS-B pocket. (LLM, conf=0.78)

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.
