The role of the first intracellular loop (IC1) in the function of the rat bradykinin B2 receptor (BKB2R) was probed. On the basis of the bovine rhodopsin X-ray structure, the BKB2R IC1 consists of six residues: (60)HKTNCT. Exchange of this sequence with the bradykinin B1 receptor IC1 (PRRQLN) resulted in a chimera which bound bradykinin and signaled as wild-type (WT) BKB2R. In contrast, a chimera containing the IC1 of rat angiotensin II type Ia receptor (AT1aR) (YMKLKT) did not bind BK nor signal in response to BK at a concentration as high as 5 microM. ELISA illustrated that this receptor was still processed and inserted into the plasma membrane. Employing portions of the IC1, we observed that (60)HKT of BKB2R could be exchanged as a group with either the BKB1R (PRR) or AT1aR (YMK) with no change in receptor binding or signaling activities. When only the YM of AT1aR replaced the HK of BKB2R, leaving the N-terminal portion of IC1 without a positively charged residue, binding and signaling were reduced by more than 70%. When only N63 was replaced with the corresponding leucine of AT1aR, binding and signaling were ablated. In fact, replacement of the entire IC1 with the AT1aR except for N63 resulted in binding and signaling as WT BKB2R. However, N63 could be replaced by glutamine (in BKB1R) or aspartate and continued to function as WT BKB2R. NMR data indicated that the BKB2R IC1 extends beyond the bovine rhodopsin prototype to include HKTNCTVAEI. When E68 was exchanged with a serine (in AT1aR), ligand binding decreased by 60% and PI turnover decreased by 69%. Molecular modeling points to a strict requirement for a hydrophilic residue at position 63 (N) at the middle of the IC1 and a Coulombic charge interaction between the positive charges (H60 and K61) at the N-terminus and a negative charge (E68) at the C-terminus of the IC1.
