Supplementary Fig. Schematic drawing demonstrating the suggested modulatory effects of UTP at HEK293-hP2X3 cells. UTP may activate G protein-coupled P2Y receptors and thereby depress the sensitivity of P2X3 receptors towards their agonists. This negative receptor-receptor interaction may be blocked by the intracellular application of the stable GDP analogue GDP-?-S. UTP may also act as a substrate for an ecto-protein kinase (PKC) which phosphorylates Ser and/or Thr residues in consensus phosphorylation sites of the ectodomain of the P2X3 receptor. The relevant amino acids are indicated. -, negative interaction; +, positive interaction; G?,?,?, subunits of the G protein coupled to a P2Y receptor.
