ABSTRACT:
The invention described encompasses an isolated DNA sequence encoding all or a portion thereof of a cell surface receptor murine and human erythropoietin (hereinafter EPO-R), along with the isolated polypeptide expressed by the DNA sequence (i.e., isolated EPO-R). The invention also encompasses host cells containing the above-described DNA sequence, preferably, host cells which express the polypeptide encoded by the DNA sequence (EPO-R) at a significantly higher level than that produced by normal red blood cell precursors. The invention further encompasses DNA sequences encoding secreted forms of the human EPO-R and polypeptides corresponding thereto. The EPO-receptor in all of the disclosed forms can be used as models for designing drugs or in pharmaceutical compositions for treating anemias.
