摘要:
Isolated DNA encoding each of human calcium channel .alpha..sub.1 -, .alpha..sub.2 -, .beta.- and .gamma.-subunits, including subunits that arise as splice variants of primary transcripts, is provided. Cells and vectors containing the DNA and methods for identifying compounds that modulate the activity of human calcium channels are also provided.
摘要:
[DNAs] DNA molecules encoding mammalian calcium channel a.sub.1 and a.sub.2 subunits are provided. The [DNAs] DNA molecules are used to transform host cells which may also contain a reporter gene, the transcription of which is responsive to an ion or molecule capable of entering the cell through a calcium channel.
摘要:
Human neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subunits are described, as are methods for producing cells containing functional receptors employing such subunits. Also described are assay methods for determining the presence of functional HnAChRs in transfected cells, and for determining the agonist or antagonist activity of compounds with respect to such cells.
摘要:
Isolated DNA encoding each of human calcium channel α1-, α2-, β- and γ-subunits, including subunits that arise as splice variants of primary transcripts, is provided. Cells and vectors containing the DNA and methods for identifying compounds that modulate the activity of human calcium channels are also provided.
摘要:
Methods for identifying compounds which modulate the activity of human neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are provided. Invention methods employ DNAs encoding alpha and beta subunits of human neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, and the polypeptides encoded thereby. Test cells useful for conducting invention assays include mammalian and amphibian cells containing said DNA. Various combinations of subunits (i.e., one or more &agr;2, &agr;3, &agr;4, &agr;5, &agr;6 and &agr;7 subunits in combination with &bgr;2, &bgr;3 and/or &bgr;4 subunits) can be employed for the invention assays.

摘要:
DNA encoding human neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor .alpha..sub.2 subunits, mammalian and amphibian cells containing said DNA, and methods for producing such subunits are provided. In addition, combinations of subunits (i.e., .alpha..sub.2, plus .alpha..sub.1, .alpha..sub.3, .alpha..sub.4, and/or .alpha..sub.7 subunits in combination with .beta..sub.2, .beta..sub.3 and/or .beta..sub.4 subunits) are provided.
摘要:
A method for isolating and cloning methanol inducible genes from Pichia is taught. The regulatory regions are useful for the methanol regulated expression of heterologous genes.
