And its use of neuropeptides Q as a regulator of GPCRGALR2

摘要

The present invention, as a ligand for GALR2 GPCR (G protein-coupled receptor) relates to the identification of the neuropeptides Q. The present invention encompasses as a basis for screening assays for agents that modulate the activity of GALR2 receptor, the use of the interaction of GALR2 polypeptide and neuropeptide Q polypeptide. The present invention also encompasses GALR2 / Neuropeptide Q polypeptide interactions were based diagnostic assays, as well as kits for performing diagnostic and screening assays. .BACKGROUND
