摘要：
In order to establish the rat testis as a model system for studying the human pregnancy-specific b1-glycoprotein (PSG), expression and cellular distribution of PSG in rat testis were examined. Three partial PSG cDNAs, namely, rnCGM6, rnGCM7, and rnCGM8 were obtained when rat testis cDNA libraries were screened with a human placental PSG cDNA probe. Unlike the human PSGs, the rat PSGs show less nucleotide and amino acid sequence homology among family members. The rat PSGs also have multiple truncated leader sequences followed by immunoglobulin variable-like N domains while human PSGs have a single N domain.
