The present invention is related to a recombinant cell expressing a nucleotide
sequence encoding a G protein coupled receptor having an amino acid sequence which
presents more than 70% sequence identity with SEQ ID.NO.1 as well as to a drug
screening method and kit using the orphan G protein coupled receptor GPR86, identified
hereafter as receptor for ADP (P2Y13) and a homologous sequence, the
corresponding polynucleotide and said recombinant cell to identify agonist, inverse
agonist and antagonist compounds applicable to a diagnostic, prevention and/or
treatment of various diseases and disorders.
