Angiotensin II (AII) is a major regulator of cardiovascular function and fluid homeostasis. Recently, the cDNA for an AII receptor (AT1) was cloned from rat smooth muscle and bovine adrenal. To search for AII receptor subtypes, we amplified rat adrenal cortex cDNA by PCR using primers based on the AT1 receptor. The product was distinct from the AT1 receptor as indicated by restriction enzyme analysis and DNA sequencing. A full-length cDNA clone (2.2 kilobase pairs) encoding a novel AII receptor (AT3) was obtained by screening an adrenal cortex library. The AT3 cDNA encodes a Mr 40,959 protein with 95% amino acid identity to the rat smooth muscle receptor, but the overall nucleotide similarity is 71% due to low homology in the 5'- (58%) and 3'- (62%) untranslated regions. Expressed AT3 receptors in Xenopus oocytes and COS-7 cells mediate agonist-induced Ca2+ mobilization but are pharmacologically distinct from the AT1 receptors. AT3 mRNA is most abundant in the adrenal cortex and pituitary and differs from AT1 mRNA in its tissue distribution. The structural features of the AT3 receptor, including two additional potential phosphorylation sites for protein kinase C, could be related to the distinctive binding properties of the adrenal and vascular receptors and to their differential regulation during altered sodium intake.
