Abstract excerpt
Fusion proteins were constructed between either a wild-type or mutant Thr370Lys alpha2B-adrenoceptor (alpha2B AR) and a mouse Galpha15 protein to analyze ligand-receptor interactions at a receptor/Galpha15 protein density ratio of 1. Activation of the wild-type alpha2B AR-Galpha15 fusion protein in CHO-K1 cells by (-)-adrenaline induced a time- and concentration-dependent (pEC50 = 7.37+/-0.13) increase in the...
