Cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 2 (CYSLTR2) is one of the receptors for the cysteinyl leukotrienes (CYSLTs), which cause bronchoconstrictions, vascular hyperpermeability and mucus hypersecretion in asthmatic patients. CYSLTR1 antagonists have been shown to be effective in the treatment of chronic asthma. CYSLTR2 is located approximately 300 kb from D13S153, which is reportedly linked to asthma in several populations. We characterized the genomic structure of humans CYSLTR2, determined the putative major promoter region and conducted association studies pertaining to polymorphisms in CYSLTR2 and asthma.
