A transcortin-binding protein in the plasma membrane of human syncytiotrophoblast.

Abstract:

:Using affinity chromatography on immobilized transcortin of 125I-labeled, cholate-solubilized plasma membranes of human syncytiotrophoblast, a transcortin-binding protein with a minimal Mr of about 20 kDa has been isolated. It was found to be a sialoglycoprotein with an isoelectric point at pH 4.4 (about 5.0 after the treatment with neuraminidase). We assume that this protein is a component of membrane recognition system for transcortin-steroid complexes.
