Abstract
The invention provides yeast cells which comprise a mutation in an endogenous yeast stp22 gene and which express a heterologous G protein coupled receptor. The instant yeast cells display enhanced sensitivity to ligand induced stimulation of heterologous G protein coupled receptors and, therefore, show improved properties in drug screening assays.
