Expression and Characterization of Inactivating and Activating Mutations in the Human Ca2+-sensing Receptor
1 Aug 1996
Abstract excerpt
Nearly 30 mutations have been identified to date in the coding region of the extracellular calcium-sensing receptor (CaR) that are associated with inherited human hypo- and hypercalcemic disorders. To understand the mechanisms by which the mutations alter the function of the receptor may help to discern the structure-function relationships in terms of ligand-binding and G protein coupling. In the present studies,...
