Abstract excerpt
Separate sites for glycoprotein hormone receptor binding and signal transduction have yet to be elucidated. In general, certain peptide regions are thought to be critical for receptor binding, whereas the oligosacharides are thought to be important for signal transduction. Using site-directed mut...
