Abstract

Abstract: Protein sequence analysis, computer modelling and recombinant DNA technology were used to design and construct a mutant human neurokinin-2 receptor containing conveniently placed cleavage sites for V8 protease and cyanogen bromide. The mutant receptor retains high affinity binding for the native peptide ligand, neurokinin A. 11te engineered receptor should prove to be a useful tool in peptide mapping studies that aim to determine the point of attachment between the receptor and cross-linked photoactivatable ligands.
