Identification and characterization of five-transmembrane isoforms of human vasoactive intestinal peptide and pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide receptors.

Abstract excerpt

The seven-transmembrane (7TM) G-protein-coupled neuroendocrine receptors VPAC1 (HGNC approved gene symbol VIPR1) and VPAC2 (HGNC approved gene symbol VIPR2) are expressed in different tissues and involved in the regulation of important biological functions. We now report the identification and characterization of novel five-transmembrane(5TM) forms of both human VPAC1 and human VPAC2. These alternatively spliced...
