Human SP-A: then and now.

The American journal of physiology - 1 Feb 1995

Floros J, Karinch A M

Abstract excerpt

In the short span of ten years, our understanding of human surfactant-associated protein A (SP-A) has advanced rapidly at both the level of the protein and the level of the gene. In the period 1984-1988, the protein was biochemically characterized and two SP-A precursors were identified. The molecular characterization was begun with the publication of an SP-A genomic sequence and sequences of two SP-A cDNAs,...
