DNA CODING FOR THE HUMAN THYROTROPIN-RELEASING HORMONE RECEPTOR

摘要

The present invention provides a human TRH receptor gene (seq ID No.1), and polynucleotide probes specifically binding to this gene or naturally occurring variants thereof, as well as polypeptide probes specifically binding to the receptor polypeptide or naturally occurring variants thereof. Expression of the gene in a host is also useful for providing means for use in the evaluation of TRH-agonists and -antagonists.
