Abstract
The rat gene Leucine-Rich Primary Response Gene-1 (LRPR1) has been proposed to encode a protein involved in the response of gonadal tissues to follicle-stimulating hormone. We have characterized a human transcript that probably encodes the orthologue of the rat protein, exhibiting 72% identity at the amino acid level. The gene from which the transcript is derived maps to human chromosomal region Xq22 and therefore becomes a potential candidate for human X-linked disorders of gonadal development.
