摘要
We cloned the 5-HT2B serotonin receptor from the puffer fish Tetraodon fluviatilis. Two cDNAs differing in length because of the use of alternative polyadenylation sites were isolated. We partly characterized the genomic organization of the 5-HT2B gene and we found two introns conserved in position between the puffer fish and mammals. In addition, four splice variants which would generate truncated forms of the receptor were detected. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
