The coding region of the humanHGLP predicts a 7-transmembrane region protein with motifs of rhodopsin-like GPCR superfamily. Northern blot analysis reveals a 3-kb transcript in various human tissues examined. The N- and C-terminal coding regions ofHGLP, which are deduced as non-transmembrane regions, have been amplified by PCR and cloned into pET30a+ vector. Then the recombinant proteins are highly expressed inE. coli. %K G-protein coupled receptor %K HGLP %K cDNA %K prokaryotic expression %U http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/BF02900684
