Characterization of the Mel1c melatoninergic receptor in platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus)
Fig 5
Molecular pharmacology of the Mel1c receptors from platypus (A) and clawed frog (B). The ligand was 2-[125I]iodomelatonin. Independent experiments were performed at least twice using different batches of membranes from stably transfected CHO cells and each point was obtained in triplicate.
