The PTH/PTH-related peptide (PTHrP) receptor is predicted to span the plasma membrane seven times with an amino-terminal extracellular extension and a cytoplasmic carboxyl-terminal tail. To assess this prediction, we inserted 10- or 9-amino acid epitope tags from c-myc or hemophilus influenza hemaglutinin (HA), which are recognized by the monoclonal antibodies 9E10 and 12Ca5, respectively, in different extracellular and cytoplasmic regions of the receptor and examined the immunoreactivity of the epitopes in intact and permeabilized cells. The data show that the epitopes were well tolerated when introduced into the E2 region of the extracellular amino-terminus (E2-myc and E2-HA), in the first extracellular loop (EL1), in the second and third cytoplasmic loops (CL2c and CL3), or in the carboxyl-terminal tail (T-myc). Receptors tagged at these locations were well expressed, bound PTH with high affinity, and increased cAMP accumulation with a good efficiency. Receptors tagged in the second and third extracellular loops (EL2c and EL3c) or the first cytoplasmic loop (CL1c) bound the PTH radioligand with a low affinity, stimulated cAMP accumulation with a low efficiency, and had low expression levels. The receptors tagged on presumed extracellular regions, E2-myc, E2-HA, EL1, EL2c, and EL3c, were readily detected on the surface of intact cells with the monoclonal antibody against the epitope tag. In contrast, receptors tagged with the c-myc epitope in the cytoplasmic loops (CL1c, CL2c, and CL3) or in the carboxyl-terminal tail (T-myc) did not show any 9E10 binding in intact cells. These receptors, however, were well expressed on the cell surface, as detected by the binding of the monoclonal antibody, 12Ca5, to the HA tag that was introduced into the E2 region of these constructs. The c-myc epitopes, however, became accessible after permeabilization of the cell membrane. In conclusion, these data provide experimental evidence for the sidedness of the extracellular and cytoplasmic domains of the PTH/PTHrP receptor.
