Cloning and Functional Characterization of a Gonadal Luteinizing Hormone Receptor Complementary DNA from the African Catfish (Clarias gariepinus)
1 Jan 2003
Abstract excerpt
A cDNA encoding a putative African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) gonadal LH receptor (cfLH-R) has been cloned. Multiple sequence alignment of the deduced amino acid sequence revealed that the cfLH-R had the highest identity with vertebrate LH receptors (>50%). Overall sequence identity between the cfLH-R and the African catfish FSH receptor (cfFSH-R) is 47%. Sequence analysis of part of the cfLH-R gene revealed...
