英文摘要 | Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) mediates diverse physiological processes through four G protein-coupled receptor subtypes (EP1-EP4). While structures of EP2, EP3, and EP4 have been determined, the structural basis for PGE2 recognition and activation of the EP1 receptor subtype has remained elusive due to its inherent instability. Here, we present the cryoelectron microscopy structure of the human EP1 receptor in complex with PGE2 and heterotrimeric Gq protein at 2.55 & Aring; resolution, completing the structural characterization of the EP receptor family. Our structure reveals a unique binding mode of PGE2 within EP1, involving key interactions with residues in the orthosteric pocket. Notably, we observe a less pronounced outward displacement of transmembrane helix 6 compared to other EP receptor subtypes, suggesting a distinct activation mechanism for EP1. Through extensive mutational analyses, we identify critical residues involved in PGE2 recognition, EP1 activation, and Gq protein coupling. By overcoming the challenges associated with the instability of EP1, our findings provide valuable insights into the subtype-specific activation mechanisms of EP receptors and lay the foundation for the development of more selective EP1-targeted therapeutics. |
