Abstract excerpt
We have isolated, from a rat liver cDNA library, two cDNAs encoding novel long isoforms of Zn-alpha2-glycoprotein (Zn-alpha2-gp), a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily with a high degree of sequence similarity to class-I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) antigens. Nucleotide (nt) sequence analysis of these two novel cDNAs has revealed that they contain insertions of 138 and 123 nt between the second and...
