Abstract
The atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) hormone is secreted by the heart in response to an increase in blood pressure. ANP exhibits several potent anti-hypertensive actions in the kidney, adrenal gland and vascular system. These actions are induced by hormone binding extracellularly to the ANP receptor, thereby activating its intracellular guanylyl cyclase domain for the production of cyclic GMP. Here we present the crystal structure of the glycosylated dimerized hormone-binding domain of the ANP receptor at 2.0-A resolution. The monomer comprises two interconnected subdomains, each encompassing a central beta-sheet flanked by alpha-helices, and exhibits the type I periplasmic binding protein fold. Dimerization is mediated by the juxtaposition of four parallel helices, arranged two by two, which brings the two protruding carboxy termini into close relative proximity. From affinity labelling and mutagenesis studies, the ANP-binding site maps to the side of the dimer crevice and extends to near the dimer interface. A conserved chloride-binding site is located in the membrane distal domain, and we found that hormone binding is chloride dependent. These studies suggest mechanisms for hormone activation and the allostery of the ANP receptor.

Figure 1: Crystal structure of the ANP receptor hormone-binding domain dimer. a, Ribbon diagram showing disulphide bonds (red), glycosylation (purple ball-and-stick), disordered glycosylation sites (purple spheres) and bound chlorides (yellow). The extrapolated C terminus of the second monomer (blue) and two transmembrane helices are modelled. b, The ANP-binding site on the receptor, shown as a space-filling model. M173 and H195 (blue), E169 and H185 (red), H185 and A202 (green), and Y88 and Y120 are highlighted. Residues 98, 113, 115, 158, 166 and the common E169 (light brown, 115 is hidden from view) are structurally equivalent to AmiC residues that interact with AmiR6. The dark grey 262-269 loop reaches over from the second monomer and forms a concave surface at one edge of the binding site that may be involved in hormone interactions. c, As b, but rotated 85° about the horizontal axis. d, Electrostatic surface representation generated using GRASP29, with positive and negative charges in blue and red, respectively, and the putative effector pocket labelled 'E'.
