Abstract excerpt
Equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG), which consists of highly glycosylated alpha- and beta-subunits, is a unique member of the gonadotropin family because it elicits response characteristics of both follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) in species other than the horse. In this study, recombinant tethered-eCG as well as its deglycosylated mutants were produced to determine if alpha- and...
