CC   -!- FUNCTION: Precursor of the major egg-yolk proteins that are sources of
CC       nutrients during early development of oviparous organisms.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Produced by the liver, secreted into the blood and
CC       then sequestered by receptor mediated endocytosis into growing oocytes,
CC       where it is generally cleaved, giving rise to the respective yolk
CC       components.
CC   -!- INDUCTION: By steroids (estrogen).
