pubmed:abstractText |
Two molecular species of urotensin II (UII) were isolated from porcine spinal cords and identified as the endogenous ligands of a G-protein-coupled orphan receptor, SENR (sensory epithelium neuropeptide-like receptor), which is identical to GPR14. We established a CHO cell line stably expressing the rat SENR and investigated several tissue extracts to evoke the response mediated by the SENR. Extract from porcine spinal cords showed an activity of arachidonic acid metabolites release from SENR-expressing cells and was purified using HPLC. Two active substances were isolated and their sequences were determined as GPTSECFWKYCV and GPPSECFWKYCV, which were revealed to be porcine UII. Synthetic UII peptides caused arachidonic acid metabolites release activity in the rat SENR-expressing cells with an EC(50) value of 1 nM. Three cDNAs encoding the precursor proteins of porcine UII were cloned from a porcine spinal cord cDNA library; 2 consist of 121 amino acid residues and the other, which seemed to be a splicing variant, consist of 85 residues.
