). We hypothesized that the
gene encoding boUCRP was under transcriptional control by the conceptus
and IFN-. Northern blots using radiolabeled UCRP cDNA revealed a
single UCRP transcript of 
700 b that was present (P < 0.05) in
endometrial cells cultured with 25 nM rboIFN-. The UCRP mRNA was not
detected in endometrium on days 15, 17, 18 or 19 of the estrous cycle
(n = 4 cows on each day) or in spleen, kidney, liver, corpus
luteum or muscle. Bovine UCRP mRNA was detectable (P < 0.05) in
endometrium from pregnant cows by day 15, reached highest levels by day
17, remained elevated on days 18, 19 and 21, and then declined to
amounts on day 26 that were not detectable. Northern blot using
radiolabeled ubiquitin cDNA revealed presence of the two major
ubiquitin transcripts UbB (1.2 Kb) and UbC (2.6 Kb) in all tissues
examined. The bovine UCRP cDNA did not cross-hybridize with these
ubiquitin transcripts. We conclude that transcription of the UCRP gene
is transient during early pregnancy and regulated by IFN-. Received March 18, 1997.
