CryoEM structure of Go-coupled 5-HT5AR in complex with Methylergometrine
Structural highlights
Function5HT5A_HUMAN G-protein coupled receptor for 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin), a biogenic hormone that functions as a neurotransmitter, a hormone and a mitogen (PubMed:35610220, PubMed:35835867, PubMed:9865521). Also functions as a receptor for ergot alkaloid derivatives and other psychoactive substances (PubMed:35835867). Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of downstream effectors (PubMed:35610220, PubMed:35835867, PubMed:9865521). HTR5A is coupled to G(i)/G(o) G alpha proteins and mediates inhibitory neurotransmission: signaling inhibits adenylate cyclase activity and activates a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system that regulates the release of Ca(2+) ions from intracellular stores (PubMed:35610220, PubMed:35835867, PubMed:9865521).[1] [2] [3] Publication Abstract from PubMedSerotonin receptors are important targets for established therapeutics and drug development as they are expressed throughout the human body and play key roles in cell signaling. There are 12 serotonergic G protein-coupled receptor members encoded in the human genome, of which the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)(5A) receptor (5-HT(5A)R) is the least understood and lacks selective tool compounds. Here, we report four high-resolution (2.73-2.80 A) structures of human 5-HT(5A)Rs, including an inactive state structure bound to an antagonist AS2674723 by crystallization and active state structures bound to a partial agonist lisuride and two full agonists, 5-carboxamidotryptamine (5-CT) and methylergometrine, by cryo-EM. Leveraging the new structures, we developed a highly selective and potent antagonist for 5-HT(5A)R. Collectively, these findings both enhance our understanding of this enigmatic receptor and provide a roadmap for structure-based drug discovery for 5-HT(5A)R.
