Figure Legend Snippet: Human A 2A AR in different membrane or membrane-mimetic environments and sample preparation workflow. (a) A 2A AR compared in three different environments in this study: (left) detergent micelles, (middle) lipid nanodiscs, and (right) lipid vesicles. (b) Schematic of the sample preparation workflow for preparing lipid vesicles containing 19 F-labeled human A 2A AR for solid-state MAS NMR experiments.
Techniques Used: Membrane, Sample Prep, Labeling
Figure Legend Snippet: Characterization of lipid vesicles containing human A 2A AR and pharmacological validation of A 2A AR in vesicles. ( a and b ) Representative negative stain electron micrographs of unilameller vesicles composed of POPC and POPS (70:30 molar ratio) ( a ) without and ( b ) with reconstituted A 2A AR. ( c ) Dynamic light scattering measurements of the distribution of the sizes of vesicles composed of POPC and POPS (70:30 molar ratio) without (green) and with (purple) A 2A AR. ( d and e ) Pharmacological characterization of A 2A AR in lipid vesicles. ( d ) Saturation binding experiment with 3 H-ZM241385 and A 2A AR in lipid vesicles containing POPC and POPS (70:30 molar ratio). The reported B max value represents the mean and associated error is the s.e.m. from 3 independent trials done in triplicate. ( e ) Radioligand competition experiments. K D and K i values are reported for the antagonist ZM241385 and the agonist NECA, respectively. The reported error represents the s.e.m. from 3 independent trials done in triplicate.
Techniques Used: Staining, Binding Assay
Figure Legend Snippet: Determination of the orientation of A 2A AR in lipid vesicles. ( a ) Schematic of the fluorescence-quenching assay used to quantify receptor orientation within vesicles. Green circles represent position C289 labeled with Cy3. Receptors with Cy3 covalently attached to position C289 facing toward the vesicle interior are labeled “A 2A AR inside”, while receptors with Cy3 facing away from the vesicle interior are labeled “A 2A AR outside”. Grey circles represent Cy3-labels that have been chemically quenched. ( b ) Quantitative comparison of the orientation of A 2A AR in vesicles made from POPC or POPC and POPS (70:30 molar ratio). The orientations “A 2A AR inside” and “A 2A AR outside” are as defined in ( a ). Error bars indicate the s.e.m. calculated from n≥3 independent experiments. Statistically significant values are illustrated as ***p<0.005 using a 2-tailed unpaired t-test.
Techniques Used: Fluorescence, Labeling, Comparison
Figure Legend Snippet: Fluorescence thermal melting profiles of the A 2A AR complex with the antagonist in three different membrane mimetics. ( a ) Schematic of the fluorescence thermal shift assay as applied to A 2A AR in lipid vesicles. The inactive fluorescent dye (grey stars) shows increased emission upon covalent attachment with cysteines that become solvent accessible upon protein unfolding (orange stars). ( b ) Representative thermal melting profiles for A 2A AR in DDM/CHS detergent micelles, lipid nanodics containing POPC and POPS (70:30 molar ratio), and lipid vesicles containing POPC and POPS (70:30 molar ratio). ( c ) The melting temperature for A 2A AR in each membrane mimetic is reported as the mean of three independent experiments ± s.e.m.

Figure Legend Snippet: 19 F MAS NMR-observed conformational equilibria of human A 2A AR in complex with an antagonist in lipid vesicles measured with different experimental parameters. ( a ) 1-dimensional 19 F-MAS spectra of A 2A AR[A289C TET ] in complex with the antagonist ZM241385 reconstituted into POPC/POPS lipid vesicles recorded with 105 kHz 1 H TPPM decoupling at three different MAS frequencies. ( b ) NMR spectra from (a) are shown superimposed with Lorentzian deconvolutions with the minimal number of components that provided a good fit, labeled P1 and P3. ( c ) 1-dimensional 19 F-MAS spectra of the same sample used to measure the data in (a) recorded with 1 H TPPM decoupling power set to one-quarter of the applied MAS frequency. ( d ) NMR spectra from (c) are shown superimposed with Lorentzian deconvolutions with the minimal number of components that provided a good fit, labeled P1 and P3. ( e and f ) ( e ) 1-dimensional 19 F-MAS spectra of the same sample used to measure the data in (a) recorded with no 1 H decoupling and ( f ) NMR spectra from ( e ) are shown superimposed with Lorentzian deconvolutions. ( g-j ) Linewidths measured for populations P1 and P3 for A 2A AR in ( g-i ) lipid vesicles or ( j ) lipid nanodiscs or detergent micelles. Components colored green are from free TET, consistent with earlier NMR studies (see text).

( a ) 1-dimensional 19 F-MAS spectra of A 2A AR[A289C TET ] in complex with the agonist NECA reconstituted into POPC/POPS lipid vesicles recorded with three different MAS frequencies and 1 H TPPM decoupling at an applied 1 H power of one-quarter of the MAS frequency.
