Dougherty 1 icotine ddiction egins with high-ffinity inding of nicotine to cetylcholine (ACh) receptors in the rin. The end result is over 4,000,000 smoking-relted deths nnully worldwide nd the lrgest source of preventle mortlity in developed countries. Stress reduction, plesure, improved cognition nd other centrl nervous system effects re strongly ssocited with smoking. owever, if nicotine ctivted ACh receptors found in muscle s potently s it does rin ACh receptors, smoking would cuse intolerle nd perhps ftl muscle contrctions. Despite extensive phrmcologicl, functionl nd structurl studies of ACh receptors, the sis for the differentil ction of nicotine on rin compred with muscle ACh receptors hs not een determined. ere we show tht t the 42 rin receptors thought to underlie nicotine ddiction, the high ffinity for nicotine is the result of strong ction p interction to specific romtic mino cid of the receptor, TrpB. In contrst, the low ffinity for nicotine t the muscletype ACh receptor is lrgely due to the fct tht this key interction is sent, even though the immedite inding site residues, including the key mino cid TrpB, re identicl in the rin nd muscle receptors. At the sme time hydrogen ond from nicotine to the ckone cronyl of TrpB is enhnced in the neuronl receptor reltive to the muscle type. A point muttion ner TrpB tht differentites 42 nd muscle-type receptors seems to influence the shpe of the inding site, llowing nicotine to interct more strongly with TrpB in the neuronl receptor. ACh receptors re estlished therpeutic trgets for Alzheimer s disese, schizophreni, Prkinson s disese, smoking cesstion, pin, ttention-deficit hyperctivity disorder, epilepsy, utism nd depression 1. Along with solving chemicl mystery in nicotine ddiction, our results provide guidnce for efforts to develop drugs tht trget specific types of nicotinic receptors. icotinic cetylcholine receptors (nachrs) comprise fmily of $20 homologous sutypes tht medite fst synptic trnsmission throughout the centrl nd peripherl nervous systems 2. The neuronl receptors re found in the centrl nervous system (CS) nd utonomic gngli. f these, the sutype most strongly ssocited with nicotine ddiction nd the trget of recently developed smoking cesstion drugs is termed 42 (refs 3 7). The high nicotine ffinity of 42 receptors, when comined with the ility of nicotine to cross the lood rin rrier nd its fvourle phrmcokinetics, llows nicotine t the sumicromolr concentrtions in tocco smoke to ctivte cutely these receptors, providing rewrd, cognitive sensitiztion nd perhps other effects. In ddition, the highffinity interction llows smoked nicotine to ct s n intrcellulr phrmcologicl chperone of 42 receptors, leding to the upregultion of receptors thought to underlie effects of chronic exposure 6,8. In previous studies of the nachr of the neuromusculr junction (muscle type), we showed tht n importnt contriutor to ACh inding is ction p interction to specific tryptophn (clled TrpB, residue 149, Fig. 1) 9. These results were susequently supported y the importnt series of crystl structures of ACh inding proteins (AChBP) 10,11. These structures reveled the romtic ox structurl motif of Fig. 1, nd the ligning residues re predominntly romtic throughout the Cys-loop fmily of neurotrnsmitter-gted ion chnnels. In other Cys-loop receptors, ction p interction etween the nturl gonist nd one of the romtics is lwys seen, lthough its precise loction vries 12. Interestingly, when nicotine ctivtes the muscle-type nachr, there is no ction p interction 13, consistent with its reltively low ffinity for this receptor. This suggested tht ction p interction could discriminte etween highffinity neuronl receptors nd low-ffinity muscle-type receptors. owever, sutle effects must e involved, s the nachrs of the CS nd neuromusculr junction re homologous throughout most regions of sequence nd re essentilly identicl in the immedite vicinity of the gonist inding site (Supplementry Fig. 1). 153 Loop A Loop B Loop C Loop D TrpB Figure 1 The inding site of AChBP, thought to resemle tht of nachrs.

2 ATURE Vol Mrch 2009 ere we descrie studies of the 42 neuronl receptor. We find remrkle ltertion of inding ehviour: oth ACh nd nicotine mke strong ction p interction to TrpB. In ddition, hydrogen ond from nicotine to the ckone cronyl of TrpB tht is wek in the muscle-type is much stronger in the 42 receptor. Tken together, these two noncovlent interctions fully rtionlize the differentil ffinity of nicotine in the rin versus the neuromusculr junction. A ction p interction etween drug nd receptor cn e reveled y incorportion of series of fluorinted mino cid nlogues (Fig. 2); consistent trend in receptor response indictes inding interction. Such n experiment is enled y the nonsense suppression methodology for incorportion of unnturl mino cids into receptors nd chnnels expressed in Xenopus oocytes. Although we hve found the nonsense suppression methodology to e rodly pplicle 14,15, implementing the methodology for study of the 42 neuronl nachrs proved to e especilly chllenging, requiring new strtegies. The 42 receptors re expressed in Xenopus oocytes t indequtely low levels for nonsense suppression experiments. owever, recent studies showed tht the Leu99Al (L99A) muttion in the M2 trnsmemrne helix of the 4 suunit gretly improves expression without ltering the phrmcologicl selectivity of the receptor 16. (In Cys-loop receptors, the highly homologous M2 sequences re often compred y numering from the cytoplsmic end, termed position 19.) Therefore, ll studies of 42 descried here included this muttion. As with other muttions of L99, the L99A muttion lowers the gonist concentrtion for hlfmximum response (EC 50 ) y influencing receptor gting in wys tht re firly well understood nd tht do not distort the present nlysis of the inding site (some 60 Å from the 99 position) 17,18.In ddition, previous studies of the muscle-type receptor used comprle muttion t L99, nd control experiments estlished tht it did not lter inding trends 9,19. The nachrs re pentmeric. The muscle-type receptor hs precise stoichiometry of (1) 2 1cd. owever, the 42 receptor cn hve vrile stoichiometry. In prticulr, there re two forms of 42, (4) 2 (2) 3 nd (4) 3 (2) 2, which we refer to herefter s A2B3 nd A3B2, respectively 8,20,21. Agonist inding sites re t the pproprite interfces. The A2B3 form hs higher sensitivity for nicotine nd my e upregulted during chronic exposure to nicotine; our studies hve focused on it. Controlling the rtios of messenger RAs injected into the oocyte cn relily control suunit c c C 3 C 3 + C 3 + C 3 ACh icotine d ,,c,d = = F,d = F,c,d = F,,c,d = F = C = Br Trp F-Trp F 2 -Trp F 3 -Trp F 4 -Trp C-Trp Br-Trp + Figure 2 Agonists nd unnturl mino cids considered here., Structures of ACh nd nicotine., Unnturl mino cids considered here.

Therefore we sought second, independent indictor of the stoichiometry of the 42 receptor. We now report tht the A2B3 nd A3B2 forms of the 4(L99A)2 receptor show mrkedly different rectifiction ehviours. As indicted y either voltge rmp or voltge jump experiments, A2B3 is sustntilly more inwrd rectifying thn A3B2 (Supplementry Fig. 2). Thus, in ll our experiments with unnturl mino cids, the stoichiometries of mutnt receptors re monitored y mesuring current voltge reltions with voltge jumps. For ech mutnt receptor studied, we determined the frction (outwrd current t 170 mv/ inwrd current t 110 mv), nd vlue #0.1 estlishes the desired A2B3 stoichiometry (Supplementry Tle 1 nd Supplementry Discussion). With these methodologicl developments in hnd, incorportion of unnturl mino cids into the 42 receptor ecomes fesile (Fig. 3). As shown in Supplementry Tle 1 nd Fig. 4, compelling fluorintion trend is seen for oth ACh nd nicotine t TrpB of the 42 receptor. This is in contrst to the results t the muscletype receptor, in which no such trend is seen for nicotine ctivtion. Further support for n importnt ction p interction for oth gonists is provided y the lrge perturtion induced y cyno (C) group which is strongly dectivting in ction p interction compred to romo (Br) group, which is roughly isosteric to cyno group ut much less dectivting. We hve lso evluted other residues tht constitute the romtic ox of the ACh inding site (Supplementry Tle 1). The results for 42 very much prllel our previous findings for the muscle-type receptor (Supplementry Discussion). This indictes tht it is specificlly the interction with TrpB tht discrimintes the two receptor sutypes. The EC 50 vlues reported here represent mesure of receptor function; shifts in EC 50 cn result from chnges in lignd inding nd/or receptor gting properties. By scriing the results to ttenution of ction p interction, we re effectively concluding tht it is lignd inding tht is eing modulted y fluorintion, ut tht conclusion is not incontrovertile. To resolve this miguity, we evluted the gting ehviours of key receptors using single-chnnel recording. For the wild type nd the receptor with 5,6,7-trifluorotryptophn (F 3 -Trp) t TrpB, we compred the proilities tht the chnnel is open (P open ) t nicotine concentrtions tht evoke hlfmximl mcroscopic stedy-stte currents (EC mm nd 1.2 mm, respectively). Any differences etween the two P open vlues must result from differences in gting ehviours. As suggested y Fig. 5 nd s confirmed y further single-chnnel nlysis (Supplementry Fig. 3 nd Supplementry Discussion), the wild-type nd mutnt receptors hve P open vlues tht re essentilly indistinguishle. Thus, the shift in EC 50 for F 3 -Trp is primrily, if not exclusively, consequence of chnges in inding. Fluorintion of TrpB of the 42 (A2B3) receptor primrily hs n impct on the sensitivity to nicotine y decresing nicotine s ction p interction with this residue. These results indicte tht nicotine is positioned more closely to TrpB in the 42 gonist inding site thn in the muscle type. This suggested tht nother nicotine-inding interction could lso e ltered. An importnt chemicl distinction etween ACh nd nicotine is tht only the ltter cn ct s hydrogen ond donor, through the pyrrolidine 1 - (Fig. 2). Exmintion of the AChBP crystl structures (Fig. 1) 22 suggested tht the ckone cronyl ssocited with TrpB could ct s the hydrogen ond cceptor, nd severl groups hve shown the importnce of this interction Previously, we proed this potentil hydrogen ond in the muscletype receptor y replcing the (i 1 1) residue with its -hydroxy nlogue (Fig. 2c). This converts the ckone mide to ckone ester, which is well estlished to e sustntilly poorer hydrogen ond cceptor. In the muscle-type receptor, this chnge rised the 535

Shown is wildtype recovery experiment, in which Trp is incorported t the TrpB position., Representtive trces of voltge-clmp currents. Brs represent nicotine EC 50 y modest fctor of 1.6 (ref. 25). We now find tht for precisely the sme chnge in the 42 receptor, the nicotine EC 50 increses 19-fold, reltively lrge effect for such sutle muttion Recll tht the ckone ester sustitution does not destroy the hydrogen ond, it simply ttenutes it. otly, ACh, which cnnot mke conventionl hydrogen ond to the cronyl, shows no shift in EC 50 in response to this muttion (Supplementry Tle 1).

Error rs indicte s.e.m.; n This estlishes tht the ester muttion does not glolly lter the inding/gting chrcteristics of the receptor. The differentil ffinity of nicotine for 42 versus muscle-type receptors results from stronger interctions in the former with TrpB oth ction p nd hydrogen onding. Becuse the two receptors re identicl with regrd to the five residues tht mke up the romtic ox, fctor outside the ox must e influencing its precise geometry, such tht nicotine cn pproch TrpB more closely in 42 thn in muscle-type nachr. Pioneering work hs identified residues responsile for the fct tht 42 receptors show consistently higher ffinity thn the homopentmeric 7 neuronl receptors 29. At prticulr residue in loop B position 153, just four residues from TrpB muttions strongly influence ffinity. In high-ffinity 42 receptors this residue is Lys, nd this residue is proposed to help shpe the romtic ox y forming ckone hydrogen ond etween loops B nd C (Fig. 1). In the lower ffinity 7 neuronl receptor, residue 153 is Gly, nd moleculr dynmics simultions of 7 suggest tht Gly t 153 discourges the formtion of the hydrogen ond etween loops B nd C. Interestingly, the ligned residue in the muscle-type receptor is lso Gly, nd nturlly occurring G153S muttion is gin-of-function nd ssocited with congenitl mysthenic syndrome 30. We now report tht the muscle-type 1 G153K mutnt shows much higher ffinity for nicotine, nd tht, when this muttion is present, the ction p Wild type 4 pa 4 pa 200 ms 10 ms F 3 -TrpB Ction π energy (kcl mol 1 ) Figure 4 Fluorintion plots. ote tht in oth plots, ll dt sets shre the point t x kcl mol 21 (ction p energy for Trp); y 5 0 (lck circle).

4 ATURE Vol Mrch 2009 interction to TrpB is strong. The dt re summrized in Supplementry Tle 1 nd Fig. 4. As expected, the ACh ction p interction is mintined in the muscle-type receptor with the G153K muttion. These dt indicte tht the loop B loop C hydrogen ond tht is nturlly present in 42 shpes the romtic ox so tht nicotine cn mke closer contct to TrpB, nd tht this structurl feture is sent or weker in the muscle-type receptor. Tken together, the present results indicte tht the higher ffinity of nicotine in the rin reltive to the neuromusculr junction is consequence of enhnced interctions with TrpB. A ction p interction tht is sent in the muscle-type receptor is quite strong in 42. In ddition, hydrogen ond to ckone cronyl tht is wek in the muscle type is enhnced in 42. Both effects re quite sustntil, nd in comintion they re more thn dequte to ccount fully for the differentil sensitivity to nicotine of the two receptors. The side chin of residue 153 in loop B distinguishes the two receptor types nd pprently influences the shpe of the inding site romtic ox, llowing stronger interction etween nicotine nd TrpB in high-ffinity receptors.

The th solution contined 120 mm KCl, 5 mm EPES, 1 mm MgCl 2 nd 2 mm CCl 2,p5 7.4, so tht the reversl potentil for gonist-induced currents of devitellinized oocytes ws,0 mv, nd the trnsmemrne potentil of the ptch ws,2100 mv. The pipette solution contined 100 mm KCl, 10 mm EPES, 1 mm MgCl 2,10mMK 2 EGTA, p nd ws supplemented with the indicted concentrtions of nicotine. Dt were collected using GeneClmp 500B mplifier (Axon Instruments) t full ndwidth (50 kz; 4-pole Bessel, 23 db) with CV GU hedstge. The signl ws then low-pss filtered (Avens Signl Equipment, AP220, 8-pole Bessel, 23 db 20 kz) nd smpled with Digidt 1320A nd Clmpex 9.2 (Axon Instruments) t 50 kz. nly ptches tht showed no simultneous ctivtions were nlysed. For ech mutnt, this ws $3 ptches from oocytes from two different donor frogs. Dt were filtered offline (Gussin, 23 db, 5 kz) nd electricl interference t hrmonics of 60 z ws removed if necessry. Event trnsitions were detected with Clmpfit 9.2 (single-chnnel serch). A ded time, t d, of 100 ms ws pplied to ll events. pen nd closed dwell time histogrms were generted s descried previously 31 nd fitted using the predefined log-trnsformed exponentil proility density function in Clmpfit 9.2. To delinete clusters, criticl closed durtion, t crit, ws defined using two seprte methods (Supplementry Discussion); in oth cses closed dwell times longer thn t crit were excluded from further nlysis. Sojourns to suconductnce stte (,85% of the full conductnce level) were treted s closed nd ccounted for,10% of the totl openings in ll records. The time-verge proility tht the chnnel is open (P open ) ws clculted s the totl open time divided y the sum of the revised totl closed time nd the totl open time. 31. McMnus,. B., Bltz, A.
