Abstract

See full text

The present invention is directed toward the isolation, characterization and pharmacological use of the human D4 dopamine receptor. The nucleotide sequence of the gene corresponding to this receptor and alleleic variants thereof are provided by the invention. The invention particularly provides recombinant eukaryotic expression constructs capable of expressing the human D4 dopamine receptor at useful levels in cultures of transformed eukaryotic cells. The invention provides cultures of transformed eukaryotic cells which synthesize such useful amounts of human D4 dopamine receptor protein, and methods for characterizing novel psychotropic compounds using such cultures.
