Methods using eaa3 or eaa4 receptors

摘要

Human CNS receptor-encoding DNA is provided from which more than one form of the receptor protein, an edited form and an unedited form, is expressed in vivo. The edited and unedited receptor forms are functionally distinct, and appear to be selectively expressed. Thus, a CNS receptor-encoding gene that is subject to such editing has value in screening compounds for potential therapeutic utility.
