Identification of cDNAs encoding two G protein‐coupled receptors for lysosphingolipids1
17 Nov 1997
Abstract excerpt
The structural similarity of lysosphingolipids to lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) prompted a sequence-based search for lysosphingolipid receptors using cDNA sequence of the Edg2 human LPA receptor. Two closely related G protein-coupled receptors, rat H218 and human Edg3, are highly similar to Edg2. When overexpressed in Jurkat cells, H218 and Edg3 activated serum response element-driven transcriptional reporter gene...
