Altered agonist sensitivity of a mutant V2 receptor suggests a novel therapeutic strategy for nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. [PDF]
Loss of function mutations of the type 2 vasopressin receptor (V2R) in kidney can lead to nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI). We studied a previously described, but uncharacterized mutation of V2R (N321K missense mutation) of an NDI patient.
