Abstract excerpt
A number of alanine mutations in extracellular loop two (ECL2) of the thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) were found to increase or decrease basal activity when compared with the wild type receptor. K565A was identified as a mutant with decreased basal activity, and strongly impaired horm...
