The cellular responses to ATP are mediated by specific high-affinity receptors designated as P2purinoceptors, five subclasses of which have been defined pharmacologically - P2X, P2Y, P2U, P2T, and P2Z. A cDNA clone encoding a rat P2Ypurinoceptor was isolated from an insulinoma cDNA library. The 373-amino acid rat P2Ypurinoceptor sequence has 85.7% and 37.8% identity with chicken P2Yand rat P2Upurinoceptors, respectively. The sequence of the mouse P2Ypurinoceptor was also determined and there was 97.1% amino acid identity with the corresponding rat sequence. RNA blotting studies showed that rat P2Ypurinoceptor mRNA was expressed at variable levels in many tissues including heart, brain, spleen, lung, liver, skeletal muscle and kidney, although it was not detected in testis. The cloned rat P2Ypurinoceptor was expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes and possessed the properties expected for this receptor subtype.
