KD and number of sites per cell for the wild-type and mutant V2Rs expressed transiently in COS.M6 cells. The data are expressed as percent of wild-type V2R value. Expression level for the wild-type receptor was 6–10 × 106sites/cell. Data are expressed as the mean ± standard error from four to six experiments.
