1. A method for identifying extracellular signals that modulate cell surface protein-mediated activity, comprising:

  • comparing the difference in the amount of transcription of a reporter gens in a recombinant cell in the presence of the signal with the amount of transcription in the absence of said signal, or with the amount of transcription in the absence of the cell surface protein, wherein;

    the recombinant cell contains a reporter gens construct and expresses the cell surface protein; and

    transcription of the reporter gens is under the control of at least one transcriptional control element whose activity is regulated by the cell surface protein.
