Abstract: Polynucleotide sequence for novel G-protein coupled receptor LUSTR2 and uses thereof. The present invention is directed to a polynucleotide sequence of a novel G-Protein Coupled Receptor LUSTR2. More particularly, the present invention provides a polynucleotide sequence comprising the nucleic acid sequence SEQ ID NO: 1 or nucleic acid sequences that hybridize to SEQ ID NO: 1 or its complimentary strand having at least 40% sequence identity. Preferably, the hybridizing nucleic acid sequence should hybridize under stringent conditions and in particular have 85% sequence identity, more preferably 90% sequence identity, and most preferably 95% sequence identity. The invention also provides the human LUSTR2 associated with the hemaotological, peripheral and central nervous system, COPD, asthma, genito-urological, metabolic diseases and pancreas and heart disorders as a result of relative quantification of the mRNA distribution in different human tissues by expression profiling.
