Abstract
The invention relates to a vector capable of being replicated in cultures of unicellular organisms, this vector containing a gene coding for a eukaryotic protein having the biological activity of a membrane receptor and interacting with a regulatory protein—called the G protein—able to bind molecules of guanosine triphosphate (GTP). The invention also relates to cell organisms transformed by the above vectors. It also relates to procedures for the detection of the capacity of a molecule to behave as a ligand for a receptor and a procedure for studying the affinity of a receptor for a ligand as well as a kit for detecting the possible affinity of a ligand for a receptor.
