G-protein coupled receptor LUSTR2 and uses thereof

摘要

Polynucleotide sequence for novel G-protein coupled receptor LUSTR2 and uses thereof. The present invention is directed to a polynucleotide sequence of a novel G-Protein Coupled Receptor LUSTR2. More particularly, the present invention provides a polynucleotide sequence comprising the nucleic acid sequence SEQ ID NO: 1 or nucleic acid sequences that hybridize to SEQ ID NO: 1 or its complimentary strand having at least 40% sequence identity. Preferably, the hybridizing nucleic acid sequence should hybridize under stringent conditions and in particular have 85% sequence identity, more preferably 90% sequence identity, and most preferably 95% sequence identity.
