Background:Heterozygous MC4R mutation is the most frequent cause of monogenic obesity. For most MC4R mutations a gene dosage effect seems to be the underlying mechanism. However, a dominant negative effect of a heterozygous MC4R mutation was recently identified, pointing to an additional mechanism of MC4R inactivation.Methods:The complete loss-of-function mutation (Ser136Phe), identified in a cohort of obese Austrian patients, was characterized for cell surface expression, signal transduction and ligand binding properties. Co-transfection studies tested for a dominant negative effect. Dimerization was investigated by a sandwich ELISA and by fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) approach. Potential intramolecular interactions of Ser136 were studied by homologous receptor modelling based on the crystal structure of the β2-adrenergic receptor.Results:The Ser136Phe mutation showed a dominant negative effect. The sandwich ELISA and FRET approach demonstrated dimerization of mutant and wild type receptor. Receptor modelling revealed an essential function of Ser136 at transmembrane helix 3 (TMH3) for establishing H-bonds between TMH2, TMH3, and TMH7. The mutation Ser136Phe most likely disrupts this network and leads to an incompetent helix-helix arrangement in the mutated receptor.Conclusion:Identification of dominant negative MC4R mutations is important to fully understand receptor function and to determine receptor regions that are involved in MC4R dimer activation.
