## Abstract Development of a hemochorial placenta involves trophoblast proliferation, differentiation, and invasion into the uterus to promote blood flow to the embryo. Trophoblast invasion is tightly controlled by expression of specific proteases in the trophoblast and highly coordinated activitie
Using a recently developed PCR-based strategy, a cDNA encoding a novel mouse mast cell (MC) serine protease (MMCP-8) was isolated and characterized. The MMCP-8 mRNA contains an open reading frame of 247 amino acids (aa), divided into a signal sequence of 18 aa followed by a 2-aa activation peptide (
