APLNR-cpGFP biosensors possess signaling ability.

G_i1 protein dissociation (a) and Arrestin3 recruitment (b) BRET assay of APLNR wildtype (WT), APLNR(F233)-cpGFP, and APLNR(K235)-cpGFP after Apelin stimulation. ng/ml represents the amount of receptor plasmid DNA (ng) used to transfect one ml of cells. c HEK293 cells were transiently transfected with Arrestin3-mCherry together with either APLNR WT, APLNR(F233)-cpGFP or APLNR(K235)-cpGFP. Cytoplasmic Arrestin3-mCherry localization is observed in unstimulated conditions. Apelin stimulation leads to a substantial translocation of Arrestin3-mCherry in APLNR WT co-transfected HEK293 cells. In contrast, only a minor fraction of Arrestin3-mCherry is membrane-localized when co-transfected with either APLNR(F233)-cpGFP or APLNR(K235)-cpGFP after Apelin stimulation. Arrowheads indicate membrane-localized Arrestin3-mCherry. Data are presented as mean values ± SEM from three independent experiments (a) and ±StD from four independent experiments (b) conducted in transiently transfected HEK293A cells (a) or transiently transfected HEK293T cells (b, c). cpGFP circularly permuted GFP, HEK293 human embryonic kidney 293.
