Title:
CHIMERIC RECEPTOR AND METHOD FOR SCREENING LIGAND OR INHIBITOR FOR THE RECEPTOR
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2006180705
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide a chimeric receptor comprising an extracellular region derived from a membrane type guanylate cyclase and an intracellular region derived from a receptor other than the membrane type guanylate cyclase and to provide a method for screening a ligand and inhibitor of the membrane type guanylate cyclase by utilizing the receptor and to provide a substance obtained by the method.

By constructing a human NPR-A/mouse G-CSFR chimeric receptor expression vector and transferring the vector into mouse Ba/F3 cells, a chimeric ANP receptor-expressing cell line highly sensitive to human ANP is successfully obtained. Use of the cell makes it possible to screen the ligand or the inhibitor for the chimeric receptor.
