Definitions
- a method of detecting interactions between a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) and a Galpha or Galpha / gamma subunit of a G protein is described.
- the present invention relates to a method for detecting the interactions between a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) and one of the Ga or G ⁇ subunits of a G protein by proximity effect transfer between the two members of a pair donor / acceptor and its applications, such as in particular the screening of new drugs and the identification of orphan receptors.
- GPCR G-protein coupled receptor
- transfer by proximity effect refers to a transfer of energy characterized by a FRET signal (HTRF® technology, CIS BIO INTERNATIONAL), a singlet oxygen transfer (Alphascreen® technology, PerkinElmer, see for example, Beaudet et al., Genome Res., 2001 Apr. 11 (4), 600-8), electron transfer (SPA technology, Amersham Biosciences, see, for example, Udenfriend et al., Anal Biochem, 1987). , Mar., 161 (2), 494-500).
- the Time Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy (TR-FRET) technique allows fluorescence measurement in time resolved and in a homogeneous medium.
- TR-FRET Time Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy
- the implementation of this technique with rare earth chelates or cryptates, developed in particular by G. Mathis et al. (see in particular "Homogeneous time resolved fluorescence ernergy transfer using rare earth cryptates as a tool for molecular interaction in biology", Spectrochimica Acta Part A 57 (2001) 2197-2211) has many advantages that have already allowed several applications in the field. in vitro diagnostics and high throughput screening in the pharmaceutical industry.
- This technique also known as HTRF® (Homogenous Time Resolved Fluorescence) uses a first fluorescent donor compound and a second acceptor fluorescent compound.
- GPCRs G-protein coupled transmembrane domain receptors
- an agonist ligand modifies the tertiary structure thereof, which in turn activates G protein coupled to GPCR.
- Activation of the G protein causes, as appropriate, the activation or inhibition of an effector that produces a second intracellular messenger such as cAMP or I 1 IP 3 .
- orphan receptors refers to transmembrane receptors whose DNA sequence suggests that it is RCPG but whose specific natural ligand is unknown.
- a ligand detection method uses a non-hydrolysable GTP radioactive derivative, namely GTPy [ 35 S] which binds to Ga protein when GPCR is activated.
- GTPy [ 35 S] binds to Ga protein when GPCR is activated.
- the kinetic parameters of the GTP analog binding are dependent on the type of G protein. This radioactive method is not suitable for high throughput screening of drugs.
- the activation of the effectors and the production of second messengers such as I 1 cAMP or PIP 3 are produced after stimulation of the GPCR and G protein. This method therefore focuses on substances produced downstream of the GPCR process.
- Methods adapted to high-throughput drug screening utilize recombinant systems based on the measurement of enzyme activity, such as ⁇ -galactosidase or luciferase activity, the expression of which is controlled by the latter. messengers produced by the activation of GPCR. These are indirect methods of measuring GPCR activity, which are also relevant to substances produced downstream of the GPCR activation process.
- Another method of ligand detection focuses on the translocation of arrestin-GFP.
- Arrestin is involved in the regulatory machinery that extinguishes the activation path triggered by ligand binding to GPCR. It makes it possible to trigger the process of internalization of the receptor in the cell, a step necessary for its degradation or recycling on the cell membrane.
- the technology developed by NORAK BIOSCI uses Parrestin fused to a fluorescent protein (GFP) (arrestin-GFP) that is expressed in cells. Under normal conditions, arrestin-GFP is distributed in cystosol. After activation of GPCR, arrestin-GFP will interact with GPCR present in the membrane and stimulated by an agonist. Its cellular distribution will therefore be modified.
- arrestin-GFP The fluorescence of arrestin-GFP attached to its receptor may also be measured in the vicinity of internal vesicles (endosomes) to the cell that reflect the phenomenon of endocytosis of certain receptors.
- Another method is to insert molecular biology fluorescent protein (CFP and YFP) in a GPCR, at the 3 rd intracellular loop and C-terminal part, respectively, and measure, by variation of a signal FRET , activation of the receiver.
- CFP and YFP molecular biology fluorescent protein
- Another method is to detect the oligomerization of GPCRs by the FRET technique (US Patent 6,824,990 B1).
- GPCR G protein-coupled receptor
- the measurement of the proximity effect transfer signal takes into account the activation state of a given RCPG / Ga pair or a given RCPG / G ⁇ pair. This signal is therefore highly specific since it is generated by a single pair necessarily composed of a GPCR of interest and one of the Ga or G ⁇ subunits of the corresponding G protein.
- This signal of the proximity effect transfer can be modulated, positively or negatively, when the receptor is specifically stimulated by a pharmacological agent (agonist, inverse agonist, antagonist or allosteric regulator).
- the invention also provides an advantage in terms of response specificity since it considers an early event in the activation pathway of the GPCR of interest. In contrast to previously known methods, it is located well in advance of the GPCR signaling pathway and takes into account the close interactions between GPCR / G protein in the absence or presence of potential pharmacological agents.
- the subject of the present invention is a method for detecting the interactions between a receptor and one of the Ga or G ⁇ subunits of a G protein, which comprises the steps of:
- the method of the invention which makes it possible to detect the interactions between a receptor and one of the Ga or G ⁇ subunits of a G protein, is particularly suitable for;

JBC 1985, vol.260 No. 8, pp. 3477-3483, Haga K.

- This medium has an isoosmotic composition with respect to the intracellular medium.
- the low concentration of Triton X100 ensures a gentle permeabilization of the cells which allows the antibodies to access the intracellular epitopes without having to fix the cells beforehand.
- the FRET signal measurements represented by the signal ⁇ 665 (emission at 665 nm of the background noise-corrected acceptor), between the C-terminal Myc tags of GB 1 or GB 2 and the Go-FLAG protein, highlighting a specific interaction between the two proteins.
- the FRET signal can be measured quantitatively on a fluorescence reader (Rubystar).
- the FRET signal of transfected cells was also measured with the same final amount of plasmids as in the experimental points. In this condition, called "mock", the plasmid does not contain coding sequences for either GB1, GB2 or GB protein.

These constructs were expressed in the transiently transfected HEK293 cells as indicated in Example 1. 24 hours after transfection, the cells are incubated in a 37 ° C oven. C.
