Neurotensin was iodinated at equimolar concentrations of peptide, iodide, and chloramine-T, producing a labeled peptide with a specific activity of 1000 to 2000 Ci/mmol. Rat mast cells specifically and reversibly bound 1.27 pmol of neurotensin/10(6) cells with a reversible affinity, KD, of 154 nM. Optimum specific binding occurred betwen pH 6.8 and 7.2 under hypotonic conditions and dropped sharply as buffer concentration increased beyond 10 mM. The divalent cations Ca2+ and Mg2+ prevented binding with 50% inhibition at 1.5 and 4 mM, respectively. Binding was strongly and equally inhibited by the sodium and potassium salts of chloride, bromide, and iodide, and to a lesser degree by LiCl. Maximum binding of 125I-neurotensin occurred within 10 min at 0 degrees, and within 1.5 to 2 min binding was reduced to half-maximum in the presence of excess unlabeled neurotensin or upon 20-fold dilution in buffer. Both CaCl2 and NaCl were able to dissociate 60% of the total bound neurotensin: half the label bound was removed in 4 to 6 min. EDTA inhibited the binding only at high concentrations and no requirement was found for sulfhydryl groups, ATP, or a glycoprotein in the binding of neurotensin.
