ABSTRACT:
A new protein is described, prostaglandin F.sub.2.alpha. receptor regulatory protein (FPRP), which is able to inhibit the binding of prostaglandin F.sub.2.alpha. (PGF.sub.2.alpha.) to its receptor (FP). Included are pharmaceutical compositions of FPRP and FPRP variants for treatment of PGF.sub.2.alpha. -mediated disorders, and assays for detecting FP in a biological sample.
