Solubilization of the Chemokine Receptor CXCR4

The chemokine receptor CXCR4 was solubilized from the human T-cell line CEM by using the detergent n-dodecyl-β-maltoside (DDM) and cholesteryl hemisuccinate ester (CHS). Binding studies with 125I-SDF-1α revealed a dissociation constant of 5.33 nM and a receptor density (Bmax) of 2.68 pmol/mg in CEM...

Zusammenfassung:The chemokine receptor CXCR4 was solubilized from the human T-cell line CEM by using the detergent n-dodecyl-β-maltoside (DDM) and cholesteryl hemisuccinate ester (CHS). Binding studies with 125I-SDF-1α revealed a dissociation constant of 5.33 nM and a receptor density (Bmax) of 2.68 pmol/mg in CEM membranes at 4°C. The affinity of solubilized CXCR4 for SDF-1α was identical to membrane-bound CXCR4. Binding of gp120 to solubilized CXCR4 was demonstrated by coprecipitation of gp120 with anti-CXCR4 antibodies.
