Rat placental lactogen-I variant (rPL-Iv), product of an unique gene, is biologically different from rPL-I.

Endocrinology - 1 Dec 1996

Robertson M C, Cosby H, Shiu R P

Abstract excerpt

The rat placenta expresses two rat placental lactogen-I (rPL-I) proteins: the normal rPL-I in the first half of pregnancy and a variant (rPL-Iv) in the second half of pregnancy. They are 70% identical at the amino acid level but arise from different cell types: rPL-I from giant cells and rPL-Iv from cytotrophoblasts. To assess whether rPL-Iv originates from alternative splicing of the rPL-I gene or is the product...
