Abstract excerpt
The sequences of the mouse and rat TRH receptors (TRH-Rs) show 94% similarity at the protein level. However, they differ significantly at their carboxy terminals, i.e. the mouse TRH-R ends with an asparagine at position 393 while, in the rat, residue 393 is lysine and an additional 19 amino acids...
