Northern blot analysis reveals that the corresponding mRNA, of approx. 4.8 kb, is expressed in all tissues tested, but predominantly in the uteri of non-pregnant animals; during pregnancy its expression is reduced. The guinea-pig SP receptor was expressed in COS-7 cells and demonstrated relative Iigand affinity in the order: SP >> neurokinin A > neurokinin B.}, subject = {Biologie}, language = {en} } @article{GorboulevAkhundovaBuechneretal.1992, author = {Gorboulev, Valentin and Akhundova, Aida and B{\"u}chner, Hubert and Fahrenholz, Falk}, title = {Molecular cloning of a new bombesin receptor subtype expressed in uterus during pregnancy}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-59304}, year = {1992}, abstract = {The homology screening approach has been used to clone a new member of the guanine-nucleotidebinding-protein-coupled receptor superfamily from guinea pig uterus. The cloned cDNA encodes a 399-amino-acid protein and shows the highest amino acid similarity to members of the bombesin receptor family; 52\% and 47\% similarity to the gastrin-releasing-peptide (GRP) receptor and the neuromedin-B receptor, respectively. Bindingexperiments with the stably transfected LLC-PK1 cell line expressing the new receptor protein confmned the bombesin-like nature of the cloned receptor. The relative order ofligand affinity, GRP = neuromedin C >> neuromedin B, suggests that the cloned cDNA represents the GRP subtype rather than the neuromedin-B subtype of bombesin receptors. Northern-blot analysis of mRNA species from several guinea-pig tissues showed that the mRNA for the new bombesin receptor subtype is expressed mainly in uteri of pregnant animals.}, subject = {Biologie}, language = {en} }
