Abstract
The primary structure of cDNA encoding of the angiotensin type 1 receptor (AT(1)R) was cloned from guinea pig liver. Guinea pig AT(1)R (GP-AT(1)R) cDNA clone contains a 1,077-bp open reading frame which encodes a protein consisting of 359 amino acid residues. GP-AT(1)R amino acid sequence showed a 92% level of identity among mammalian species. GP-AT(1)R is expressed in liver, kidney, adrenal gland, heart and colon.
