Quantitative analysis of direct ligand binding of both [3H]clonidine and [3H]rauwolscine to the rat cerebral cortex alpha 2-receptors indicates the existence of two affinity states of the same receptor populations. In the presence of Mn2+, the high affinity state of [3H]clonidine binding was increased, whereas the high affinity state of [3H]rauwolscine binding was reduced. By contrast, GTP in micromolar ranges caused a decrease of the agonist high affinity state and an increase of the antagonist high affinity state. The total receptor sites and the respective separate affinities for both radioligands were approximately equal to their control values under all conditions, indicating that Mn2+ and GTP modulate the proportion of the two affinity states of the receptor. These results can be incorporated into a two-step, ternary complex model involving a guanine nucleotide binding protein (N protein) for the agonist and antagonist interaction with the alpha 2-receptor. Furthermore, the effects of GTP on the interaction of both ligands with the two affinity states can be mimicked by EDTA. It is suggested that divalent cations induce the formation of the receptor-N protein binary complex showing high affinity for agonists and low affinity for antagonists.
