The X-ray crystal structure of the dimerized atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) receptor hormone-binding domain has provided a first structural view of this anti-hypertensive receptor. The structure reveals a surprising evolutionary link to the periplasmic-binding protein fold family. Furthermore, the presence of a chloride ion in the membrane distal domain and the presence of a second putative effector pocket suggests that the extracellular domain of this receptor is allosterically regulated. The scope of this article is to extensively review the data published on this receptor and to correlate it with the hormone-binding domain structure. In addition, a more detailed description is provided of the important features of this structure including the different binding sites for the ANF hormone, chloride ion, putative effector pocket, glycosylation sites, and dimer interface.Key words: crystal structure, periplasmic-binding protein fold, guanylyl cyclase, hormone receptor.

Imasaki K, Hasegawa T. Okabe T. Sakai Y. Haji M. Takayanagi R, Nawata H. Single amino acid substitution (840Arg → His) in the hormone-binding domain of the androgen receptor leads to incomplete androgen insensitivity syndrome associated with a thermolabile androgen receptor. Eur I Endocrinol 1994;130:569–74. ISSN 0804–4643 We have characterized the androgen receptor in a Japanese girl and her maternal cousin in a family with incomplete androgen insensitivity syndrome, and have investigated the molecular basis. Wholecell androgen binding assay in cultured genital skin fibroblasts from both patients showed a normal maximum binding capacity and a normal apparent dissociation constant. However, androgen binding in fibroblasts from both patients decreased to 30% when the assay temperature was raised from 30°C to 41°C, indicating the presence of the thermolability of ligand binding to the androgen receptor. Sequence analysis of the coding exons of the androgen receptor gene from the patients revealed a single nucleotide substitution at position 2881 in exon G, resulting in the conversion of arginine (CGT) to histidine (CAT) at amino acid position 840 in the hormone-binding domain of the androgen receptor. The family study showed that the mothers and the maternal grandmother of the patients are heterozygous carriers for this mutation, whereas the father does not carry it, supporting the view that androgen insensitivity syndrome is an X chromosome-linked disorder. The single amino acid substitution may explain the qualitative abnormality of the androgen receptor displaying thermolability, which is thought to be the pathogenesis of incomplete androgen insensitivity syndrome in the patients.
