Evolutionary analysis of the multigene pregnancy-specific beta 1-glycoprotein family: separation of historical and nonhistorical signals.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Feb 1996

McLenachan P A, Lockhart P J, Faber H R, Mansfield B C

Abstract excerpt

The pregnancy-specific beta 1-glycoproteins (PSG) form a large family of closely related proteins. Using newly developed methods of sequence analysis, in combination with protein modeling, we provide a framework for investigating the evolution and biological function of genes like the PSG. Evolut...
