NOVEL G PROTEIN COUPLED RECEPTOR

摘要

A novel G protein coupled receptor family is described, herein called B5. DNA coding for members of this family has been isolated. Methods of producing recombinant cell lines which produce the receptors as a heterologous membrane-bound product are described, as well as other related aspects of the invention, which are of commercial significance, including use of the cell lines as a tool for the discovery of therapeutic compounds which modulate the receptor activity.
