Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptor signals by a complex which includes the ligand and two different receptor subunits: a low affinity alpha receptor binding chain (granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptor alpha subunit (GM-Ralpha)) and a signal-transducing beta chain (GM-Rbeta). To investigate two unresolved issues in the initiation of signaling, the role of receptor extracellular domains and receptor stoichiometry, we replaced the mouse GM-Ralpha and GM-Rbeta extracellular domains with the leucine zipper domain of either the Fos or Jun molecule. We co-transfected combinations of chimeric receptors into Ba/F3 cells and found that both simple heterodimers of the GM-Ralpha and GM-Rbeta intracellular domains and homodimers of the GM-Rbeta intracellular domain signaled for proliferation. Surprisingly, homodimers of the GM-Ralpha intracellular domain also signaled for prevention of apoptosis in transfected cells. We similarly engineered dimers of the intracellular domain of the human interferon gamma receptor beta subunit and found that homodimers of the intracellular domain signaled for proliferation. When Fos peptide was added to Ba/F3 cells expressing the human interferon gamma receptor beta subunit construct, thereby preventing homodimer formation, the cells no longer proliferated in the absence of mouse interleukin 3.
