 Abstract: The extracellular part of ionotropic glutamate receptor (iGluR) subunits can be divided into a conserved two-lobed ligand-binding domain (S1S2) and an N-terminal ˜400-residue segment of unknown function (X domain) which shows high sequence variation among subunits. To investigate the structure and properties of the N-terminal domain, we have now produced affinity-tagged recombinant fragments which represent the X domain of the GluRD subunit of alpha -amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA)-selective glutamate receptors either alone or covalently linked to the ligand-binding domain (XS1S2). These fragments were expressed in insect cells as secreted soluble proteins and were recognized by a conformation-specific anti-GluRD monoclonal antibody. A hydrodynamic analysis of the purified fragments revealed them to be dimers, in contrast to the S1S2 ligand-binding domain which is monomeric. The X domain did not bind radiolabeled AMPA or glutamate nor did its presence affect the ligand binding properties of the S1S2 domain. Our findings demonstrate that the N-terminal domain of AMPA receptor can be expressed as a soluble polypeptide and suggest that subunit interactions in iGluR may involve the extracellular domains
