title: Characterization of the analogues to human pregnancy-associated alpha 2-glycoprotein (alpha 2PAG, PZP) isolated in the mouse and rat.
abstract: Immunological cross-reaction and antigenic identity between pregnancy-associated alpha 2-glycoprotein (alpha 2PAG) and alpha 2PAG analogues in the mouse and the rat are demonstrated. The proteins have been characterized independently in 2 different laboratories and the physicochemical and biological properties of the rat and the mouse alpha 2PAG analogues and human alpha 2PAG are compared and discussed.
