Abstract excerpt
Intracellular trafficking of GH and its receptor, more particularly the chicken GH receptor (cGHR), was examined in COS-7 cells using biochemical and structural studies. Internalization of radioactive GH by the cGHR is reduced as compared with the rat GHR. On the contrary, activation of gene transcription through Janus kinase-2 was similar for both species. Secondary structures of the cytoplasmic domain of...
