Comparative structure-activity studies on mammalian [Arg8] LH-RH and chicken [Gln8] LH-RH by fluorimetric titration. 1983

R C de L Milton, and J A King, and M N Badminton, and C J Tobler, and G G Lindsey, and M Fridkin, and R P Millar

Fluorimetric titrations of mammalian [Arg8] LH-RH, chicken [Gln8] LH-RH and an analogue [Lys8] LH-RH revealed pK values of 5.80, 6.22 and 6.01 for His2, and 9.65, 9.88 and 9.88 for Tyr5. The titration ranges for His2 were 1.72, 2.03 and 1.71 while the range for Tyr5 was rather similar (approximately 1.7) for all three peptides. Biological activity and receptor binding in the mammalian system for chicken LH-RH was 1% relative to mammalian LH-RH while [Lys8] LH-RH had a relative activity of approximately 10%. In contrast, mammalian and chicken LH-RH were equipotent in stimulating LH release from chicken pituitary cells. The results indicate differences in the receptors related to the conformations of LH-RH and position 8-substituted analogues.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007987 Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone A decapeptide that stimulates the synthesis and secretion of both pituitary gonadotropins, LUTEINIZING HORMONE and FOLLICLE STIMULATING HORMONE. GnRH is produced by neurons in the septum PREOPTIC AREA of the HYPOTHALAMUS and released into the pituitary portal blood, leading to stimulation of GONADOTROPHS in the ANTERIOR PITUITARY GLAND.

D011956 Receptors, Cell Surface Cell surface proteins that bind signalling molecules external to the cell with high affinity and convert this extracellular event into one or more intracellular signals that alter the behavior of the target cell (From Alberts, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2nd ed, pp693-5). Cell surface receptors, unlike enzymes, do not chemically alter their ligands.

D011966 Receptors, LHRH Receptors with a 6-kDa protein on the surfaces of cells that secrete LUTEINIZING HORMONE or FOLLICLE STIMULATING HORMONE, usually in the adenohypophysis. LUTEINIZING HORMONE-RELEASING HORMONE binds to these receptors, is endocytosed with the receptor and, in the cell, triggers the release of LUTEINIZING HORMONE or FOLLICLE STIMULATING HORMONE by the cell. These receptors are also found in rat gonads. INHIBINS prevent the binding of GnRH to its receptors.
