  • Novel mammalian G-protein coupled receptors having extracellular leucine rich repeat regions
    Publication number: 20050026248
    Abstract: Isolated nucleotide compositions and sequences are provided for LGR4, LGR5 and LGR7 genes. The nucleic acid compositions find use in identifying homologous or related genes; in identifying endogenous ligands for these receptors; in producing compositions that modulate the expression or function of its encoded protein; for gene therapy; mapping functional regions of the protein; and in studying associated physiological pathways. In addition, modulation of the gene activity in vivo is used for prophylactic and therapeutic purposes.
