The anaphylatoxic peptide C5a is an important inflammatory mediator of the complement system. We have generated human C5a-receptor (hC5aR) mutants with truncation of its cytosolic carboxyl-terminus (C-terminus). Both mutants were analysed for C5a-binding in transiently expressing COS cells, and one mutant additionally for GTP-binding regulatory protein (G-protein) coupling in cRNA-injected Xenopus oocytes. Our data suggest that (a) amino acids (aa) 314 to 326 as part of the C-terminus are necessary for proper receptor folding or expression and (b) the receptor C-terminus distal from position 327 is not critical for receptor expression, folding, binding and G-protein coupling.
