We investigated the role of the 1st cytoplasmic loop of the thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) on signal transduction using mutants as we did the 2nd and 3rd cytoplasmic loops [Kosugi S. et al. (1994) Mol. Endocrinol., in press; and 7, 1009-1020]. Five substitution mutants involving the first cytoplasmic loop showed a TSH- or Graves' IgG-stimulated cAMP response despite the low TSH binding Bmax. All the mutants completely lost or markedly decreased the TSH- or Graves' IgG-stimulated inositol phosphate increase. These findings suggest that the 1st cytoplasmic loop of the TSHR does not play a crucial role in agonist-induced adenylate cyclase activation but that it is important for phosphoinositide signaling.
