Identification of proacrosin binding protein sp32 precursor as a human cancer/testis antigen.

abstract：:The peroxidase-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of a linear aldehyde, leading to the next lower homologue in the triplet state, is accompanied by Norrish type II product ethylene when the substrate is pentanal. This system appears to provide an example of "photobiochemistry without light" because ethylene is a plant hormon...
