Novel G protein-coupled receptor proteins

摘要

This invention belongs to the genetic engineering field, and provides the novel G protein-coupled receptor family protein SREB3 expressed in the central nervous system, genes coding for this protein, screening methods using this protein and so on.

<Paragraphs id="pa02" num="0002" xmlns:base="http://www.sipo.gov.cn/XMLSchema/base">As one of the methods for obtaining the G protein-coupled receptor proteins of the present invention, RT-PCR is carried out using mRNA extracted from human or rat brain tissue or brain-derived cells as the template and using two primers interposing the entire portion or a part of the G protein-coupled receptor protein translation region, thereby obtaining cDNA corresponding to the G protein-coupled receptor protein or a part thereof, and the cDNA is integrated into an appropriate expression vector and expressed in a host cell.
