The Edg family G protein-coupled receptors for lysophospholipids: their signaling properties and biological activities.

abstract：:The presence of a leucine zipper motif was recognized in the deduced amino acid sequences of human and rat renin-binding proteins (RnBPs) on cloning and sequence analysis of the RnBP cDNAs. The in vitro synthesized RnBPs, with the respective cDNAs, formed heterodimers with porcine renin and homodimers. On comparison o...

Consistent with this prediction, the V-ATPase became sensitive upon subst...
