Abstract excerpt
One G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) can activate more than one G protein, but the physiologic importance of such activation has not been demonstrated in vivo. We have generated mice expressing exclusively a mutant form of the PTH/PTHrP receptor (DSEL) that activates adenylyl cyclase normally but not phospholipase C (PLC). DSEL mutant mice exhibit abnormalities in embryonic endochondral bone development,...
