Abstract: The present invention provides DNA sequences coding for a TNF-binding protein and for the TNF receptor of which this protein constitutes the soluble domain. The DNA sequences can be used for preparing recombinant DNA molecules in order to produce TNF-binding protein and TNF receptor. Recombinant TNF-binding protein is used in pharmaceutical preparations for treating indications in which TNF has a harmful effect. With the aid of the TNF receptor or fragments thereof or with the aid of suitable host organisms transformed with recombinant DNA molecules containing the DNA which codes for the TNF receptor or fragments or modifications thereof, it is possible to investigate substances for their interaction with the TNF receptor and/or for their effect on the biological activity of TNF.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for screening substances having a modulating effect on a receptor-dependent signal transmission path in mammal cells. Test cells are used transformed with a reporter gene and with a regulatory sequence functionally linked thereto sensitive to the IP.sub.3 /DAG concentration, as well as with a coding DNA for a receptor coupled to the phospholipase effector system, in particular a G protein-coupled receptor. The use of reference cells without receptor DNA and reference cells with specificity for the adenylate cyclase effector system allows substances to be identified having potential pharmacological action and specificity for a determined receptor-dependent signal transmission path.
