Abstract excerpt
In this study, a mutagenesis-based strategy was employed to assess the roles of two highly conserved motifs (KLR and RLAR) within the third endoloop of the human secretin receptor. Block deletion of KLRT and mutation of Lys323 (K(323)I) significantly reduced cAMP accumulation, and these mutations did not affect ligand interaction and receptor number expressed on the cell surface. Thus, the KLRT region at the N...
