| abstractText | We have isolated and sequenced the mouse somatostatin receptor subtype-4-encoding gene (mSSTR4). The mSSTR4 gene encodes 384 amino acids (aa). The deduced mouse SSTR4 has 95 and 89% aa identity with the deduced rat and human SSTR4, respectively, while it has lower aa identity with the other mouse subtypes (mSSTR1, 60%; mSSTR2, 47%; mSSTR3, 42%). Using an RT-PCR technique, we show that the mSSTR4 gene is expressed in brain, but not in liver, heart, spleen or kidney of the adult mouse. |
