We previously observed highly rapid and robust response of murine olfactory receptor S6 (mOR-S6) with chimeric G alpha(15)_(olf) , compared to G alpha(15). To identify residues responsible for this difference in response, mutations of the cytosolic helix 8 were analyzed in a heterologous functional expression system. The N-terminal hydrophobic core between helix 8 and TM1-2 of mOR-S6 is important for activation of both G alpha(15)_(olf) and G alpha(15). Point mutation of a helix 8 N-terminal acidic residue eliminated the differences in response dynamics via G alpha. This result suggests that an N-terminal acidic residue of helix 8 is responsible for rapid response via G alpha(15)_(olf). (C) 2015 Federation of European Biochemical Societies.
