In Vitro Studies

BINA alone had no effect on FRET histograms of SNAP-labeled, full-length mGlu2 in LMNG-CHS-GDN micelles. In immobilized SNAP-mGluR2-TMD molecules, BINA application did not change the proportion of higher order complexes assessed by photobleaching step distributions. In the VFT closure sensor, adding BINA had no significant additional effect compared with glutamate alone. In IGEPAL-solubilized human mGlu2 receptors already totally stabilized in the active VFT state by Glu, adding BINA produced no further effect on VFT activation. [1,2,3]

FRET histograms of micellar mGlu2

Cell-based study · SNAP-labeled, full-length mGlu2 in LMNG-CHS-GDN micelles [1]

SNAP-labeled, full-length mGlu2 in LMNG-CHS-GDN micelles was treated with BINA at 10 µM. Compared with the absence of ligands, BINA alone had no effect on FRET histograms.

Photobleaching distributions in immobilized receptor molecules

Cell-based study · immobilized SNAP-mGluR2-TMD molecules [2]

BINA was applied at 1 µM to immobilized SNAP-mGluR2-TMD molecules. Photobleaching distributions showed ~40–45% two-step bleaching events, with no change in the proportion of higher order complexes with >3 bleaching steps (<10%).

VFT closure with glutamate

A VFT closure sensor measured the fraction of molecules in the closed state with BINA at 1 μM and glutamate at 10 mM. Compared with glutamate alone, BINA had no significant additional effect.

BINA addition and VFT activation
