Abstract

The amphibian tetradecapeptide bombesin and its mammalian homolog gastrin-releasing peptide are neurotransmitters and paracrine hormones, and are mitogenic for fibroblast and small cell lung carcinoma cell lines. cDNAs encoding the bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (BR) expressed by murine Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts were isolated using electrophysiological and luminometric Xenopus oocyte expression assays. Oocytes microinjected with BR transcripts responded to concentrations of bombesin from 1 x 10(-10) to 1 x 10(-6) M. These responses showed homologous desensitization and could be specifically blocked by bombesin antagonists. Sequence analysis showed that the BR has seven membrane-spanning domains and five potential N-linked glycosylation sites. Data base analysis showed that the BR is most homologous to the tachykinin receptors. Although tyrosine kinase activity has been associated with BR function, no tyrosine kinase homologies occur within the BR sequence.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
