What is Guinea Pig Histamine H~1~ Receptor. I. Gene Cloning, Characterization, and Tissue Expression Revealed by In Situ Hybridization about?

Abstract: An intronless DNA encoding the guinea pig H~1~ receptor was cloned from a genomic library using probes derived from the bovine H~1~ receptor. It encodes a protein of 488 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 55,619 daltons compared with a size of 56–68 kDa for the photoaffinity‐labeled receptor as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate‐polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis. The protein displays a 66% homology with the bovine receptor. Stable expression of the H~1~ receptor, characterized by the appearance of [^3^H]mepyramine binding sites with a pharmacology similar to that of the native H~1~ receptor, was obtained following transfection of Chinese hamster ovary cells. Southern blot analysis, using a variety of restriction enzymes, did not provide any evidence of multiple H~1~ isoreceptors. Northern blot analysis of a variety of guinea pig peripheral or cerebral tissues identified, in most cases, a single transcript of 3.3 kb, but also, in some tissues, a second transcript of 3.7 kb, possibly generated by the use of different promoter or polyadenylation sites or corresponding to a transcript from a distinct gene. In situ hybridization studies showed the high
