Abstract excerpt
Biochemical properties of mutant type 2 vasopressin receptors (V2Rs) causing a partial phenotype of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus were investigated in transiently transfected HEK 293 cells. Cell surface expression of the V2R was not altered by substituting Asp85 in the second transmembrane region by Asn as determined by saturation binding assays. Although the affinity of the mutant V2R for arginine vasopressin...
