Abstract excerpt
Within the extracellular loops of the seven-transmembrane domain of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaR) there is a region (I819-E837) relevant for calcimimetic activity. As the naturally occurring variant Ala826Thr is within this important region, it may be postulated that this change may influence the CaR response to calcium and R-568. Human embryonic kidney (HEK-293) cells transiently transfected with three...
