TABLE 1 Effect of mutation of human GIPR on its expression and ability to induce cAMP formation
Receptor expression was measured by flow cytometry using GIP-Alexa F 647 as label of GIPR. Results are expressed as percentage of expression value of the WT-GIPR and are the means ± S.E.M. of three or four individual experiments. Fmut (mutation factor) was calculated as EC50 (mutated GIPR)/EC50 (WT-GIPR), where EC50 is the potency of GIP (based on four to nine determinations). Emax corresponds to efficacy of GIP to stimulate cAMP production. Emax values are expressed as percentage of GIP-stimulated cAMP production with the WT-GIPR.
