ABSTRACT

The human gastric tumoral cell line HGT-1 was previously shown to contain a membrane somatostatin receptor negatively coupled to adenylate cyclase through a pertussis toxin-sensitive inhibitory GTP-binding regulatory protein (Gi) (Reyl-Desmars, F., Laboisse, C., and Lewin, M. J. M. (1986) Regul. Pept. 16, 207-215). In this study, we have solubilized this receptor in a free unoccupied form using Triton X-100 as detergent and [125I-Tyr11]somatostatin-14 to monitor specific binding. Furthermore, we have prepared a monoclonal antibody against a chromatographically enriched soluble receptor fraction and used this antibody (30F3) to immunopurify the receptor in conjunction with Sepharose-somatostatin-14 immunopurification and steric exclusion high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). The purified fraction showed 18,600-fold enrichment in terms of specific binding (i.e. from 0.6 +/- 0.05 to 11,300 +/- 830 pmol/mg of protein) and a single dissociation constant (kappa D) of 76 +/- 8 nM. On HPLC, it migrated as a single and symmetric 90-kDa peak. Moreover, after 125I-protein labeling, it gave a single 90-kDa band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis autoradiography. On the other hand, the 30F3 monoclonal antibody immunoblotted with a single 90-kDa band contained in the HGT-1 cell membrane. We therefore suggest that this antibody is specific to the HGT-1 membrane somatostatin receptor, that this receptor has a molecular mass of 90 kDa, and that we have obtained a homogeneous preparation of nondenatured receptor suitable for further cloning studies.
