To examine the expression of human placental lactogen, we investigated transcription in isolated placental nuclei. Using SH-agarose affinity chromatography, we have isolated Hg-RNA synthetized in vitro. These RNA are translated in a wheat germ cell-free system. hPL synthetized in vitro, accounting for 20% of total protein. This system should prove useful for the study of gene expression of hPL.
