Hormonal Regulation of Rat Androgen-Binding Protein (ABP) Messenger Ribonucleic Acid and Homology of Human Testosterone- Estradiol-Binding Globulin and ABP Complementary Deoxyribonucleic Acids
TL;DR: Complementary DNA clones coding for rat androgen-binding protein (rABP) were isolated from a rat testis cDNA library constructed in the bacteriophage lambda gt11 and demonstrate that the cDNAs for human testosterone-estradiol binding globulin and human ABP have greater sequence similarity with each other than either has with rABP.
Corticosteroid binding globulin, testosterone-estradiol binding globulin, and androgen binding protein belong to protein families distinct from steroid receptors

TL;DR: The cDNA nucleotide sequences and the deduced amino acid sequences of human corticosteroid binding globulin, human testosterone-estradiol binding Globulin, and rat androgen binding protein were determined and it is concluded that the "extracellular steroid binding proteins and steroid receptors do not appear to have descended from a common ancestor".

TL;DR: Human plasma corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) and rat testicular androgen-binding protein (ABP) belong to a group of high-affinity steroidbinding proteins that are traditionally thought of as “extracellular” steroid transport proteins.

Primary structure of human corticosteroid binding globulin, deduced from hepatic and pulmonary cDNAs, exhibits homology with serine protease inhibitors
Geoffrey L. Hammond,Carolyn L. Smith,I.S. Goping,Underhill Da,M.J. Harley,J Reventos,Neal A. Musto,Glen L. Gunsalus,C W Bardin +8 more
TL;DR: There is a remarkable similarity between the amino acid sequences of CBG and of alpha 1-antitrypsin, and this extends to other members of the serpin (serine protease inhibitor) superfamily.
