http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/11793416http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"We have designed novel DNA primers that allow us to detect the expression of the subunits of chorionic gonadotropin (CG) from a variety of species of the order Primates. Using these primers, reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and standard cloning techniques, we detected the expression of a single gene for the common glycoprotein hormone (GPH) alpha-subunit and at least two genes for the CG beta-subunit in trophoblasts of Macaca fascicularis (cynomolgous macaque (cm)) at gestational day (GD) = 26 (+/-2d). No cmCG expression was detected at GD = 35-40. When sequences of cmGPH-alpha and cmCG-beta genes were compared to the corresponding genes of other primates, we found that the alpha-subunit of M. fascicularis was highly conserved compared to other primate species. However, cmCG beta-subunits appeared to be less conserved, residing between those of human CG-beta and baboon CG-beta when analyzed phylogenetically. Of particular interest was a three amino acid stretch in one of the expressed cmCG-beta genes that is distinct from all other primates studied. Our findings imply that not only does the expression of multiple CG beta-subunit genes appear to be common to Old World monkeys, but that the presented methodology will greatly facilitate our ability to understand primate evolution."xsd:string
