By targeting the expression of sequences encoding non‐milk proteins to the mammary
gland of transgenic farm animals, the organ could serve as a 'bioreactor'for producing …

Lactoferrin (LF) is abundant in human seminal plasma and on sperm surfaces. However,
lactoferrin receptor (LFR) on human spermatozoa has not yet been reported. To study the …

Abstract STUDY QUESTION Is lactoferrin (LF)(detected in oviductal secretion) able to bind to
oocytes and sperm and modulate gamete interaction? SUMMARY ANSWER LF binds to …

Abstract Lactoferrin (LTF), an iron-binding glycoprotein present in most exocrine secretions
and in the secondary granules of polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN), is regulated by …

We have previously shown that the estrogen responsiveness of the human lactoferrin gene
in a transient transfection system is mediated through an imperfect estrogen response …

To improve nutrient content of goat milk, we describe the construction of a vector (pBLAC)
containing a hybrid goat β‐lactoglobulin (BLG) promoter/cytomegalovirus (CMV) enhancer …

Lactoferrin is an iron-binding glycoprotein present in high concentrations in milk and
exocrine fluids such as bile and tears. Many functions have been attributed to lactoferrin …

The antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties of lactoferricin have been ascribed to its
ability to sequester essential iron. The objective of the study was to clone bovine lactoferricin …

Transgenic technology permits major modifications of phenotype by introducing subtle
changes in genotype. For domestic farm species, genetic modification may be used to …

Abstract A β-lactoglobulin (BLG)/luciferase gene vector (p907), composed of a luciferase
intronless gene inserted between the second and sixth BLG exons was constructed. Stable …
