PTH and PTH-related peptide (PTHrP) bind to the PTH/PTHrP receptor and stimulate cAMP accumulation with similar efficacy. Only PTH activates the PTH2 receptor. To examine the structural basis for this selectivity, we analyzed receptor chimeras in which the amino terminus and third extracellular domains of the two receptors were interchanged. All chimeric receptors bound radiolabeled PTH with high affinity. Transfer of the PTH2 receptor amino terminus to the PTH/PTHrP receptor eliminated high-affinity PTHrP binding and significantly decreased activation by PTHrP. A PTH/PTHrP receptor N terminus modified by deletion of the nonhomologous E2 domain transferred weak PTHrP interaction to the PTH2 receptor. Introduction of the PTH2 receptor third extracellular loop into the PTH/PTHrP receptor increased the EC50 for PTH and PTHrP, while preserving high-affinity PTH binding and eliminating high-affinity PTHrP binding. Similarly, transfer of the PTH/PTHrP receptor third extracellular loop preserved high-affinity PTH binding by the PTH2 receptor but decreased its activation. Return of Gln440 and Arg394, corresponding residues in the PTH/PTHrP and PTH2 receptor third extracellular loops, to the parent residue restored function of these receptors. Simultaneous interchange of wild-type amino termini and third extracellular loops eliminated agonist activation but not binding for both receptors. Function was restored by elimination of the E2 domain in the receptor with a PTH/PTHrP receptor N terminus and return of Gln440/Arg394 to the parent sequence in both receptors. These data suggest that the amino terminus and third extracellular loop of the PTH2 and PTH/PTHrP receptors interact similarly with PTH, and that both domains contribute to differential interaction with PTHrP.
