Synthetic peptide corresponding to 18aa from the N-terminus of human Endothelin B Receptor.
The Endothelin Receptor ETB is expressed in most tissues. Mutations of the receptor gene are responsible for Hirschsprung disease type 2, a multigenic disorder with phenotypes such as bicolored irides, megacolon, hypopigmentation, and hearing loss. The ETB receptor has similar affinity for all three endothelins and activates a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. A splice variant, termed SVR, has been described, the sequence of the ETB-SVR receptor is identical to ET-B receptor, with the exception of the intracellular C-terminal domain. While both splice variants bind endothelin ET1, they exhibit different responses, which suggests that they may be functionally distinct.
