Molecular cloning of a murine homologue of membrane cofactor protein (CD46): preferential expression in testicular germ cells

15 Feb 1998

Abstract excerpt

Human membrane cofactor protein (MCP, CD46) has been suggested, although no convincing evidence has been proposed, to be a fertilization-associated protein, in addition to its primary functions as a complement regulator and a measles virus receptor. We have cloned a cDNA encoding the murine homologue of MCP. This cDNA showed 45% identity in deduced protein sequence and 62% identity in nucleotide sequence with...
