Treatment of rabbit brain membranes of the DHP binding sites of L-type Ca2+ channel with lysine-specific reagent resulted in a time- and concentration-dependent loss of [3H]nitrendipine binding activity. Following exposure to the maximum concentration of PLP (100 mM), [3H]nitrendipine binding was inhibited by up to 96.5%. Scatchard analysis of the binding data indicated that treatment with PLP resulted in a loss of [3H]nitrendipine binding sites with no effect on binding affinity. Considerable protection against PLP inactivation was obtained by nifedipine. These results indicate that lysine residue plays a critical role in maintaining the DHP-binding sites in a conformation capable of ligand binding.
