摘要:
A gene encoding the HP4 human prostaglandin receptor is disclosed. The protein encoded by this gene exhibits significant sequence identity with other prostaglandin receptors. The HP4 receptor, when expressed in eukaryotic cells, is capable of binding prostaglandins and their analogs and stimulating adenylate cyclase activity in response to prostaglandins. Also disclosed are antisense agents able to decrease or prevent translation of a human HP4 prostaglandin receptor.
