Estrogen receptor in rat pancreatic islets
The cytosol fraction of pancreatic islets of the female rat was found to contain a specifically binding protein for [3H]-estradiol. This protein was heat sensitive and the [3H]-estradiol binding was eliminated by treatment with protease and sulphydryl-blocking agents. Scatchard analysis of the cytos...
