Met-204 and Tyr-205 are together important for binding GLP-1 receptor agonists but not their N-terminally truncated analogues

Protein Pept Lett. 2004 Feb;11(1):15-22. doi: 10.2174/0929866043478491.

Abstract

A mutagenesis study to systematically analyse residues spanning the first extracellular loop of the GLP-1 receptor identified a double mutant, Met-204/Tyr-205-Ala/Ala, which displayed: markedly reduced affinity for the natural agonist GLP-1; slightly reduced affinity for its analogue exendin-4; and unaltered affinity for several N-terminally truncated analogues of GLP-1 and exendin-4. This suggests that the locus is important for the formation of the binding site for the N-terminal residues of peptide agonists.
