Antibody to an estrogen inducible mouse uterine protein (Teng, C. T., Walker, M. P., Bhattacharyya, S. N., Klapper, D. G., DiAugustine, R. P., and McLachlan, J. A. (1986) Biochem. J. 240, 413-422) has been used to isolate cDNA to the messenger RNA. Analysis of the deduced primary structure and additional biochemical characterization indicates that the protein is lactotransferrin. An increase in the level of lactotransferrin mRNA of at least 300-fold can be induced in the mouse uterus by estrogen. In contrast, the mRNA is virtually undetectable in rat uterine tissue following estrogen administration. The estrogenic stimulation in mouse uterus contrasts with the known prolactin dependence in mammary gland.
针对一种雌激素诱导的小鼠子宫蛋白的抗体（滕，C.T.，沃克，M.P.，巴塔查里亚，S.N.，克拉珀，D.G.，迪奥古斯汀，R.P.，和麦克拉克伦，J.A.（1986年）《生物化学杂志》240，413 - 422）已被用于分离信使核糖核酸的互补脱氧核糖核酸。对推导的一级结构的分析和额外的生化特性表明该蛋白是乳铁传递蛋白。雌激素可使小鼠子宫中乳铁传递蛋白信使核糖核酸的水平至少增加300倍。相比之下，给大鼠子宫组织注射雌激素后，这种信使核糖核酸几乎检测不到。小鼠子宫中的雌激素刺激与乳腺中已知的催乳素依赖性形成对比。
