The specific binding protein for substance P (SP) was solubilized in an active form from the crude mitochondrial (P2) fraction of bovine brainstem. After incubation with 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propane sulfonate (CHAPS) and 0.1 M NaCl at 0 degrees C for 30 min, the SP binding to the supernatant fraction (100,000 g, 60 min) was determined by the glass fiber filtration method reported by Bruns et al. (1983). The specific [3H]SP binding to the solubilized fraction was highly specific for SP and was displaced by nanomolar concentrations of SP and physalaemin, but only by micromolar concentrations of eledoisin. In addition, the binding was inhibited by GTP (approximately 40% of the specific binding decreased by 10 microM GTP) in both preparations. These results were virtually identical to those of P2 membrane preparations and suggested that this high-affinity SP binding site belongs to the SP-P type. Scatchard analyses of SP binding to the solubilized fraction revealed a single saturable component with a Bmax of 22.0 +/- 5.10 fmol/mg protein and a KD of 0.79 nM, and these values are almost the same as those obtained in the P2 fraction (Bmax = 31.3 +/- 3.56 fmol/mg protein, KD = 0.82 nM). Gel filtration analysis showed that the detergent-SP binding protein complex has two calculated molecular weights of greater than 1,000,000 and 55,000-60,000 (a corresponding Stokes radius of 35.5 nm).
