In situ photolinked nuclear progesterone receptors of human breast cancer cells: subunit molecular weights after transformation and translocation.

abstract：:PTH and PTH-related peptide (PTHrP) have been shown to bind to and activate the same PTH/PTHrP receptor. Recent studies have demonstrated, however, the presence of additional receptors specific for each ligand. We used the PTHrP and PTH/PTHrP receptor gene knock-out models to investigate whether this receptor mediates...
