We report here the cDNA cloning of a putative gastrin receptor from enterochromaffin-like (ECL) carcinoid tumor of Mastomys natalensis. For this study, we used the polymerase chain reaction technique to amplify transmembrane domain sequences related to rat pancreatic cholecystokinin (CCK)-A receptor from the ECL tumor cDNA library. The amino acid sequence deduced from the cloned cDNA showed 85.7% and 49.0% identity to canine parietal cell gastrin receptor and rat pancreatic CCK-A receptor, respectively. Ligand binding studies using COS-7 cells transfected with the cDNA showed the same binding specificity for gastrin and CCK-8 as the gastrin receptor on the Mastomys carcinoid tumor membrane. Both gastrin and CCK-8 elevated free cytosolic calcium concentration in COS-7 cells expressing the cloned receptor. RNA blot analysis revealed the expression of the gastrin receptor in both Mastomys stomach and brain.
