Abstract excerpt
Phosphorylation-deficient serotonin 5-HT(2C) receptors were generated to determine whether phosphorylation promotes desensitization of receptor responses. Phosphorylation of mutant 5-HT(2C) receptors that lack the carboxyl-terminal PDZ recognition motif (Ser(458)-Ser-Val-COOH; DeltaPDZ) was not detectable based on a band-shift phosphorylation assay and incorporation of (32)P. Treatment of cells stably expressing...
