Contents
Leptin's effects are mediated by interactions with a receptor that is alternatively spliced, resulting in at least five different murine forms: Ob-Ra, Ob-Rb, Ob-Rc, Ob-Rd, and Ob-Re. A mutation in one splice form, Ob-Rb, results in obesity in mice. Northern blots, RNase protection assays, and PCR indicate that Ob-Rb is expressed at a relatively hig...
