TABLE 1

Comparison of ligand binding parameters for WT and C6.47(355) mutant human CB1 receptors Binding parameters were determined in cellular membranes prepared from WT and mutant CB1 transfected CHO cells as described under Materials and Methods. The binding affinities shown represent the mean ± S.E.M. of at least three independent determinations each performed in quadruplicate.
