title: Cloning of PL33: a novel probable serpentine membrane receptor associated with human cytotrophoblast and lineage-specific HL-60 cell differentiation.
abstract: From a subtracted library of differentiating human cytotrophoblast cells, we have cloned a gene termed PL33, a novel probable member of the G-protein-linked seven transmembrane domain receptor family. The 496 amino acid open reading frame of PL33 codes for a protein of predicted molecular weight of 54.7 kDa. Northern blot analysis shows that the two mRNA transcripts of PL33 are expressed in testes, keratinocytes, differentiating cytotrophoblast and in monocyte/macrophage lineage-specific HL-60 cell differentiation.
