Physiological and biochemical studies show that there are differences in drug efficiencies at different GABA(B) receptors, so it is expected that GABA(B)-receptor (GABA(B)R) subtypes exist. Two GABA(B)-receptor splice variants have been cloned (GABA(B)R1a and GABA(B)R1b), but native GABA(B) receptors and recombinant receptors showed unexplained differences in agonist-binding potencies. Moreover, the activation of presumed effector ion channels in heterologous cells expressing the recombinant receptors proved difficult. Here we describe a new GABA(B) receptor subtype, GABA(B)R2, which does not bind available GABA(B) antagonists with measurable potency. GABA(B)R1a, GABA(B)R1b and GABA(B)R2 alone do not activate Kir3-type potassium channels efficiently, but co- expression of these receptors yields a robust coupling to activation of Kir3 channels. We provide evidence for the assembly of heteromeric GABA(B) receptors in vivo and show that GABA(B)R2 and GABA(B)R1a/b proteins immunoprecipitate and localize together at dendritic spines. The heteromeric receptor complexes exhibit a significant increase in agonist- and partial- agonist-binding potencies as compared with individual receptors and probably represent the predominant native GABA(B) receptor. Heteromeric assembly among G-protein-coupled receptors has not, to our knowledge, been described before.\r\n","lang":"eng"}],"_id":"2588","author":[{"full_name":"Kaupmann, Klemens","last_name":"Kaupmann","first_name":"Klemens"},{"full_name":"Malitschek, Barbara","last_name":"Malitschek","first_name":"Barbara"},{"first_name":"Valérie","full_name":"Schuler, Valérie","last_name":"Schuler"},{"last_name":"Heid","full_name":"Heid, Jacob","first_name":"Jacob"},{"last_name":"Froestl","full_name":"Froestl, Wolfgang","first_name":"Wolfgang"},{"full_name":"Beck, Pascal","last_name":"Beck","first_name":"Pascal"},{"first_name":"Johannes","full_name":"Mosbacher, Johannes","last_name":"Mosbacher"},{"first_name":"Serge","full_name":"Bischoff, Serge","last_name":"Bischoff"},{"first_name":"Ákos","full_name":"Kulik, Ákos","last_name":"Kulik"},{"full_name":"Shigemoto, Ryuichi","id":"499F3ABC-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Shigemoto","first_name":"Ryuichi","orcid":"0000-0001-8761-9444"},{"full_name":"Karschin, Andreas","last_name":"Karschin","first_name":"Andreas"},{"first_name":"Bernhard","last_name":"Bettler","full_name":"Bettler, Bernhard"}],"day":"17","article_processing_charge":"No","extern":"1","publication":"Nature","title":" GABA(B)-receptor subtypes assemble into functional heteromeric complexes"}
