Two distinct isoforms of the human progesterone receptor (hPR-A and hPR-B) have been identified previously. They differ only in that hPR-B contains an additional 164 amino acids at the amino terminus. Among various species these two forms arise as a result of either alternate initiation of translation from the same mRNA or by transcription from alternate promoters within the same gene. In order to understand the...
