Interaction of putative vasopressin receptor proteins of rat brain and bovine pituitary gland with an antibody against a nanopeptide encoded by the reverse message of the complementary mRNA to vasopressin.
An antibody directed against the reverse message of the complementary mRNA for arginine vasopressin was demonstrated to be immunoreactive with 62 and 55 kdalton proteins, obtained by affinity chromatography of rat brain and bovine posterior pituitary extracts and believed to be associated with the vasopressin binding site. A similar pattern of immunoreactivity was seen with an anti-idiotypic antibody for arginine vasopressin.
