Definitions
- the present invention relates to a DNA segment encoding a mammalian cannabinoid receptor, the cannabinoid receptor encoded therein and recombinantly produced cannabinoid receptor protein.
- Cannabinoids are the primary active constituents of marijuana, a preparation of the plant Cannabis Sativa , producing prominent effects on the central nervous system. They are responsible for effects such as changes in mood, perception, cognition, memory and psychomotor skills. Cannabinoids, well known for their psychoactivity, also have value as therapeutic agents. Cannabinoids have found use in the treatment of chemotherapy side effects, glaucoma, bronchial asthma and insomnia. They can also be used as analgesics, muscle relaxants or anticonvulsants.
- cannabinoid action is that these drugs may be active at a specific neurotransmitter receptor site. This hypothesis is supported by the fact that the behavior of the drugs is dose dependent, pharma ⁇ cologically selective and stereospecific in man as well as a variety of animal idels. However, prior to the present invention, the structure of such a cannabinoid receptor was not known.
- the present invention relates to a DNA segment encoding all, or a unique portion, of a mammalian cannabinoid receptor, or a DNA fragment comple ⁇ mentary to the DNA segment.

Indicated above and below the sequence, respectively, are the predicted hydrophobic domains (I through VII) and the translated primary structure of the receptor. The initial stretch of guanine nucleotides represents the G tail produced during cDNA synthesis.
- the substance K receptor derived probe sequence is indicated by dots (bases identical to SKR6) beginn i ng at base number 449; non-identical bases are provide, above the cDNA sequence and a single nucleotide gap (hyphen) has been introduced to align the probe with the cDNA sequence. Underlined amino acids are those which are highly con ⁇ served among other G protein-coupled receptors.

- EXAMPLE ISOLATION OF RAT RECEPTOR GENE SKR6 was isolated from a rat cerebral cortex cDNA library constructed in the mammalian expression vector pCDl as described by Okayama et al. [Mol. Cell. Biol. , 3: 280-289 (1983)]. Screening was performed as described previously for cloning muscarinic receptor subtype cDNAs [Bonner et al., Science, 237: 527-532 (1984)]. Sequencing was performed by dideoxynucleotide-chain termination of single-stranded DNA obtained from restriction fragments inserted into M13 mpl8 or 19 [Yanisch-Perron, Gene, 33: 103 (1985)]. The deduced amino acid sequence, shown in Figure
- the probe sequence was derived from the sequence of the substance K receptor, however, less than 25% homology overall exists between the amino acid sequence of SKR6 and the substance K receptor. Although characteristic of the G protein-coupled class of membrane-located receptors, the amino acid sequence of SKR6 is not obviously similar to that of the substance K receptor nor any other receptor cloned to date.
- LH-CG receptor (lacks the corresponding proline [McFarland et al., Science, 245: 494-499 (1989) and Loosfelt et al.,
- SKR6 N-linked glycosylation sites are enclosed within boxes.
- the entire SKR6 cDNA (5.7 kb) includes an additional circa 4100 bases 3' of the given sequence.
- SKR14 a second clone was isolated whose coding region, although incomplete, was identical to SKR6.
- the 3' untranslated sequence of SKR14 was circa 2900 bases shorter than that of SKR6. Comparison of the sequences of these clones indicates that SKR14 is the product of an alternatively poly-adenylated mRNA.
- RNAs were isolated from cultured N18TG-2, NG108-15 and C6BU-1 cells using the guanidinium thiocyanate method as described by Chomczynski et al. [Anal. Biochem., 162: 156-159 (1987)], and loaded (lO ⁇ g/lane) into a 1% aga ⁇ rose/formaldehyde gel. Following electrophoresis and electrotransfer the filter was hybridized to a nick- translated fragment of the SKR6 cDNA, washed (0.1 x SSPE/0.1% SDS, 60°C) and exposed to x-ray sensitive film for 6 days (-80°C) (see Figure 2) .
- SKR6 As a cannabinoid receptor, other ligands were tried such as neurotensin, d-ala-d-leu enkephalin, various adenosine analogs, somatostatin, bradykinin, secretion and PGE.
- the recep ⁇ tors for these had all been described in either N18TG-2 or NG108-15 cells [Howlett et al., Mol. Pharmcol., 26: 532- 538 (1984) and Nirenburg et al. , Science, 222: 794-799 (1983)].
- Transfection and selection of cells were performed as described [Chen et al. , Mol. Cell. Biol., 7: 2745-2752 (1987) ] .
- a monoclonal line expressing the SKR6 cDNA was obtained by limiting-dilution cloning of cells expressing the corresponding mRNA as determined by Northern blot analysis. Functional expression studies were similar to experiments designed by Howlett et al. [Howlett et al., Mol. Pharmacol., 29: 307-313 (1986)].
- Transfected cells were resuspended (1.25 x 10 6 cells/ml) in culture media containing fatty-acid free BSA (0.25%). Cells were incubated (37°C) for five min.
- EC 50 values mean nM ⁇ Standard Error of the Mean (S.E.M.) for the inhibition of stimulated cAMP accumulation were 13.5 ⁇ 2.7 for (-)d9THC, 773 ⁇ 187 for (+) d9THC, 0.87 ⁇ 0.20 for CP 55940, 8.9 ⁇ 1.8 for 11-OH d9THC and 16.6 ⁇ 4.9 for nabilone.
- CP 55940 and nabilone are synthesized by Pfizer and Lilly Research laboratories, respectively. other cannabinoics are compounds distributed by the National Institute of Drug Abuse.
- CHO cells were transfected with an ⁇ - adrenergic receptor, a muscarinic receptor or SKR6.
- ⁇ -adrenergic receptor a muscarinic receptor or SKR6.
- Both the ⁇ -adrenergic nor muscarinic receptors responded to (-) ⁇ 9THC or CP 55940 (see Table I below) . Both these receptors, however, reduced cAMP production in response to their respective agonists.
- both the muscarinic and adrenergic receptors are Gi-coupled, the cannabinoid-induced inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity observed in SKR6-transfected cells was not due to the interaction of cannabinoids with this class of recep ⁇ tors and was clearly specified to SKR6. TABLE I
- Values represent the average accumulation of cAMP + S.E.M. as percent of forskolin-stimulated controls.
- the effects of the various agonists were examined in 3-5 experiments (each performed in triplicate) .
- Numbers in parentheses are the absolute values of cAMP as deter ⁇ mined by RIA (p oles cAMP/10 6 cells/5 min) .
- Final concen- trations of forskolin were 500 nM for all cell lines except NG108-15; forskolin concentration for this cell line was 250 nM.
- the muscarinic and adrenergic receptor- transfected cells were assayed under conditions identical to those routinely used to test the SKR6-transfected cells (see figure 3) .
- Final concentrations of carbachol (ago ⁇ nist for muscarinic receptors) and clonidine (agonist for ⁇ -adrenergic receptors) were 100 ⁇ M and 10 ⁇ M, respec ⁇ tively.
- carbachol ago ⁇ nist for muscarinic receptors
- clonidine agonist for ⁇ -adrenergic receptors
- a human cosmid library purchased from Stratagene [(catalog no. 951-202)], was screened with a probe specific for the rat cannabinoid receptor.
- the probe con- stituted of EcoRV-Xbal SKR6 restriction fragment corre ⁇ sponding to bases 97 to 1370 of Figure 1.
- a positive clone was sequenced as described for the rat cDNA clone.
- the partial nucleotide sequence of the DNA and deduced amino acid sequence are shown in Figure 5. There is about 97% homology between the deduced amino acid sequence of the human receptor and the rat receptor.
- the human cannabinoid receptor gene was inserted into a ptk-muARS vector [Hoist et al.. Cell, 52: 355-365 (1988) and Zastrow et al., Nucl. Acid Res., 17: 1867-1879 (1989)].
- the recombinant molecule was then transfected into L-M(tk-) L cells (American Type Culture Collection Accession number ATCC CCL 1.3) by methods which are reproducible and known in the art. Expression of the receptor protein was detected using described methods [Devane et al., Mol. Pharmacol., 34: 605-613 (1988)]. This stably transformed cell line enables binding assays to be preformed on immortal tissue culture cells.
- This cell line is unique in that the same cell line exists without the cannabinoid receptor (non- transfected L-cells) and thus can be used to demonstrate ligand-receptor interactions which are specific to the cannabinoid receptor.
- Some cannabinoid receptor assays can be performed on tissue preparations, but without antagonist ligands (none currently available) , demonstra ⁇ tions of specificity are limited (particularly in assays which measure a functional response) .
- This cell line expresses approximately 10 fold more cannabinoid receptor mRNA than the neuroblastoma cell line, N18TG-2.
