Abstract excerpt
The human vasoactive intestinal peptide/pituitary adenylate cyclase activating peptide receptor1 (VPAC1) belongs to the class II subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors. Specific changes by mutagenesis of a strictly conserved threonine (H) into lysine (K), proline (P) or alanine (A) at position 343 of the human VPAC1 receptor resulted in its constitutive activation with respect to cAMP production. Transfection...
