1 Figure 5 In vitro characterization of the Y290F and T269M GNRHR mutations. A: Competitive binding curves for the Y290F and T269M GNRHR mutants compared to the wildtype (WT) receptor in transiently transfected COS-7 cells (fibroblast-like cell line derived from monkey kidney). Cells were incubated with a <sup>125</sup>I-labeled GnRH agonist in the presence of graded concentrations of unlabeled GnRH. Binding was reduced with the Y290F mutant and completely abolished with the T269M mutant. Data are means and range of a single representative experiment performed at least three times in duplicate. B: Inositol phosphate (IP) accumulation in transiently transfected COS-7 cells, showing impaired or abolished response with the Y290F and T269M GnRHR mutants. Data are means and range of a single representative experiment performed at least three times in duplicate. C: Serum responsive element (SRE)-coupled luciferase concentration-response curves in transiently transfected HEK293T cells (derived from human embryonic kidney). Luciferase activity (arbitrary units by luminometry; a.l.u.) are shown as a ratio of beta-galactosidase activity (optical density) used as internal control for transfection efficiency. SRE activity was reduced with the Y290F mutant and absent with the T269M mutant. This experiment was performed four times in triplicate. D: ERK1/2 phosphorylation by western blot in transiently transfected HEK293T cells. After transfection, cells were treated with 10 nM GnRH, 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) or vehicle, for 10 min. ERK phosphorylation was reduced and absent with the Y290F and T269M mutants, respectively. Data are representative of three experiments.
