Abstract excerpt

The pregnancy-specific glycoproteins (PSGs) of the human placenta are a group of proteins that together with the carcinoembryonic antigens comprise a subfamily within the immunoglobulin superfamily. To study the control of PSG expression, we isolated and characterized PSG genes and identified cis-acting DNA elements in the 5'-flanking gene regions essential for PSG expression. Two overlapping PSG cosmid clones,...
