Abstract

We have determined the identity of the orphan G-protein coupled receptor cDNA, 6H1, present in activated chicken T cells, as a subtype of P2Ypurinoceptor. This identification is based first on the degree of sequence identity shared with recently cloned members of the P2Yreceptor family and second on the pharmacological profile. Upon transient expression in COS-7 cells the 6H1 receptor bound the radiolabel [35S]dATPαS specifically and with high affinity (Kd, 10 nM). This specific binding could be competitively displaced by a range of ligands active at P2purinoceptors, with ATP being the most active (Ki, 116 nM). Such competition studies have established the following rank order of activity: ATP ADP 2-methylthioATP α,β-methyleneATP, UTP, thus confirming 6H1 as a member of the growing family of P2Ypurinoceptors. As the fifth receptor of this type to be identified we suggest that it be named P2Y5.

    Among them, EDG-family sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor S1PR2 is arguably the best characterized member (Baeyens et al., 2015; Laidlaw et al., 2019), but a role for S1PR2 in immuno-oncology has not been documented to date. LPAR6 (P2RY5) is of special interest as it displays its highest expression in immune cells and is strongly induced upon activation of chicken T cells through as-yet-unknown mechanisms (Kaplan et al., 1993; Webb et al., 1996). Furthermore, LPAR6 prefers 2-acyl- rather than 1-acyl-LPA species as ligand (Yung et al., 2014), which may explain the relatively high IC50 value for 1-oleyl-LPA observed in T cell migration assays (Figure 1B).

    The most recent addition to the LPA receptor family is LPA6. In 1993, receptor 6H1 was isolated from a chicken T cell library (185) and subsequently renamed to p2y5 because of sequence homology with P2Y receptors (186). Genetic studies indicated roles for LPA6 in hypotrichosis simplex, a complex of diseases involving familial hair loss (22).
