Abstract
We have characterized the dopamine D2 receptor photaffinity probe, [3H]azido‐N‐methylspiperone ([3H]AMS). In the absence of light, [3H]AMS bound reversibly and with high affinity (K d 70 pM) to sites in canine striatal membranes and was competitively inhibited by dopaminergic agonists and antagonists with an appropriate D2 receptor specificity. Upon photolysis, [3H]AMS covalently incorporated into a peptide of M r 92000 as assessed by fluorography following SDS‐polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Labelling of this peptide was specifically and stereoselectively blocked by D 2 antagonists and agonists. Minor specifically labelled peptides of M r 70000‐55000 were observed under some conditions and were the result of proteolytic degradation of the peptide at M r, 92000.Keywords
