Identification of INSL6, a New Member of the Insulin Family That Is Expressed in the Testis of the Human and Rat1

1 Jun 2000

Abstract excerpt

A new member of the insulin gene family (INSL6) was identified from an Expressed Sequence Tag database through a search for proteins containing the insulin family B-chain cysteine motif. Human and rat INSL6 encoded polypeptides of 213 and 188 amino acids, respectively. These orthologous sequences contained the B-chain, C-peptide, and A-chain motif found in other members of the insulin family. Human INSL6 was 43%...
