It’s most predominant during the later stages of pregnancy and plays an important role in fetal development.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePSG5 Structure\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePSG has a complex structure consisting of a combination of protein and carbohydrate. It contains four immunoglobulin domains. This type of protein has a similar domain structure to CEACAMs, minus a membrane anchor. It is, therefore, secreted instead. The structure can vary according to species, but all that have glycoprotein present contain a core protein covalently bound to a carbohydrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePregnancy Specific Beta-1-Glycoprotein Function\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePSG is essential for the healthy development of a fetus. Its functions include inducing or enhancing an immune response by regulating lymphocytes, protecting the fetus from immune attacks from the maternal bloodstream. Inflammation, infection, and trauma, can be a threat to the fetus otherwise. For this reason, the level of PSG rises in the bloodstream throughout pregnancy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePSG5 Interactions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePSGs can be affected by internal and external factors. Certain viruses have been known to bind with a PSG receptor in the brain, for instance. Smoking during pregnancy may also reduce the level of PSGs in the bloodstream. If the concentration of PSG is low in the second or third trimester, this could have a detrimental effect, and has been correlated with restricted fetal growth. It can also be indicative of conditions such as Down Syndrome. Hereby, the levels of this glycoprotein are tested throughout pregnancy, particularly in the first trimester.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"psg1-human","title":"PSG1 Human","description":"\u003cp\u003ePregnancy Specific Beta-1-Glycoprotein 1 Human Recombinant\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"synonyms_hide\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003ePregnancy Specific Beta-1-Glycoprotein 1, PSBG1, B1G1, Fetal Liver Non-Specific Cross-Reactive Antigen 1\/2, Pregnancy-Specific Beta-1 Glycoprotein C\/D, CD66 Antigen-Like Family Member F, PS-Beta-C\/D, PS-Beta-G-1, FL-NCA-1\/2, PSBG-1, PSGGA, PSG95, SP1, Pregnancy-Specific Beta-1-Glycoprotein 1, Pregnancy-Specific B-1 Glycoprotein, Pregnancy-Specific Glycoprotein 1, CD66f Antigen, DHFRP2, PSGIIA, CD66f, PBG1, PSG1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"prospecbio","offers":[{"title":"5µg","offer_id":43175010173012,"sku":"PRO-1966","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20µg","offer_id":43175010205780,"sku":"PRO-1966","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1mg","offer_id":43175010238548,"sku":"PRO-1966","price":2700.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0559\/3219\/0804\/files\/Prospecbio-psg1-human-PRO-1966.png?v=1776708111"},{"product_id":"psg1-protein","title":"PSG1 Human, Sf9","description":"\u003cp\u003ePregnancy Specific Beta-1-Glycoprotein 1 Human Recombinant, Sf9\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"synonyms_hide\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003ePregnancy Specific Beta-1-Glycoprotein 1, PSBG1, B1G1, Fetal Liver Non-Specific Cross-Reactive Antigen 1\/2, Pregnancy-Specific Beta-1 Glycoprotein C\/D, CD66 Antigen-Like Family Member F, PS-Beta-C\/D, PS-Beta-G-1, FL-NCA-1\/2, PSBG-1, PSGGA, PSG95, SP1, Pregnancy-Specific Beta-1-Glycoprotein 1, Pregnancy-Specific B-1 Glycoprotein, Pregnancy-Specific Glycoprotein 1, CD66f Antigen, DHFRP2, PSGIIA, CD66f, PBG1, PSG1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"prospecbio","offers":[{"title":"2µg","offer_id":43175011352660,"sku":"PRO-2452","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10µg","offer_id":43175011385428,"sku":"PRO-2452","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1mg","offer_id":43175011418196,"sku":"PRO-2452","price":5200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0559\/3219\/0804\/files\/Prospecbio-psg1-protein-PRO-2452.png?v=1776708116"},{"product_id":"psg5-human","title":"PSG5 Human","description":"\u003cp\u003ePregnancy Specific Beta-1-Glycoprotein 5 Human Recombinant\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"synonyms_hide\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003ePregnancy Specific Beta-1-Glycoprotein 5, Pregnancy-Specific Beta-1 Glycoprotein, Fetal Liver Non-Specific Cross-Reactive Antigen 3, Pregnancy-Specific Beta-1-Glycoprotein 5, FL-NCA-3, PS-beta-G-5, PSBG-5, PSG.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"prospecbio","offers":[{"title":"5µg","offer_id":43175012302932,"sku":"PRO-1633","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20µg","offer_id":43175012335700,"sku":"PRO-1633","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1mg","offer_id":43175012368468,"sku":"PRO-1633","price":2700.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0559\/3219\/0804\/files\/Prospecbio-psg5-human-PRO-1633.png?v=1776708120"},{"product_id":"psg5-protein","title":"PSG5 Human, Sf9","description":"\u003cp\u003ePregnancy Specific Beta-1-Glycoprotein 5 Human Recombinant, Sf9\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"synonyms_hide\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003ePregnancy Specific Beta-1-Glycoprotein 5, Pregnancy-Specific Beta-1 Glycoprotein, Fetal Liver Non-Specific Cross-Reactive Antigen 3, Pregnancy-Specific Beta-1-Glycoprotein 5, FL-NCA-3, PS-beta-G-5, PSBG-5, PSG.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"prospecbio","offers":[{"title":"1µg","offer_id":43175013285972,"sku":"PRO-2459","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5µg","offer_id":43175013318740,"sku":"PRO-2459","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50µg","offer_id":43175013351508,"sku":"PRO-2459","price":1100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0559\/3219\/0804\/files\/Prospecbio-psg5-protein-PRO-2459.png?v=1776708124"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0559\/3219\/0804\/collections\/Image_184fe798-8143-4f41-9844-09ef4ee04885.png?v=1700647797","url":"https:\/\/prospecbio.com\/collections\/pregnancy-specific-beta-1-glycoprotein.oembed","provider":"prospecbio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
