Abstract excerpt
The human 5-HT1D beta serotonin receptor and its rat homolog (also called the 5-HT1B receptor) share 93% amino acid identity, yet display markedly different pharmacological specificities. Comparison of deduced amino acid sequences among these and other recently cloned receptors suggested that this phenotypic difference might be attributable to a single human threonine355/rat asparagine351 amino acid difference in...
