The mammalian ..beta../sub 2/-adrenergic receptor from rat liver has been purified by sequential cycles of affinity chromatography followed by steric-exclusion high performance liquid chromatography. Electrophoresis of highly purified receptor preparations on polyacrylamide gels in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate under reducing conditions reveals a single peptide M/sub r/ = 67,000, as judged by silver staining. Purified ..beta../sub 2/-adrenergic receptor migrates on steric-exclusion high performance liquid chromatography in two peaks, with M/sub r/ = 140,000 and 67,000. Specific binding of the high affinity, ..beta..-adrenergic receptor antagonists (-)(/sup 3/H)dihydroalprenolol and (-)(/sup 125/I)iodocyanopindolol to purified rat liver ..beta..-adrenergic receptor preparations displays stereoselectivity for (-)isomers of agonists and a rank order of potencies for agonists characteristics of a ..beta../sub 2/-adrenergic receptor. Radioiodinated, ..beta../sub 1/-adrenergic receptors from rat fat cells and ..beta../sub 2/-adrenergic receptors from rat liver purified in the presence of protease inhibitors comigrate in electrophoretic separations on polyacrylamide gels in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate as 67,000-M/sub r/ peptides. Autoradiograms of two dimensional partial proteolytic digests of the purified, radioiodinated rat liver ..beta../sub 2/-adrenergic receptor, generated with ..cap alpha..-chymotrypsin, S. aureus V8 protease and elastase reveal a pattern of peptide fragments essentially identical to those generated by partial proteolytic digests of the purified, radioiodinated ..beta../sub 1/-adrenergic receptor from rat fat cells, by these same proteases. These data indicate that a high degree of homology exists between these two pharmacologically distinct mammalian ..beta..-adrenergic receptor proteins.
