Functional characterization of the cloned human ACTH receptor: impaired responsiveness of a mutant receptor in familial glucocorticoid deficiency.
The putative ACTH receptor gene has been identified on the basis of its tissue specific expression, structure, and limited expression data. We have expressed this gene in COS-7 cells and measured cAMP production in response to ACTH. An EC50 of 5.5 x 10(-9) M for ACTH (1-24) was determined. The S74I...
