Identification of a second insulin-like growth factor in a fish species.
1 Oct 1992
Abstract excerpt
An internal portion of insulin-like growth factor (IGF) amplified from the total cDNA of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) liver by a PCR was used to screen a rainbow trout liver cDNA library, and recombinant clones encoding two distinct IGFs were isolated. On the basis of a 98.7% nucleotide and 98.3% predicted amino acid identity to coho salmon IGF-I, one cDNA sequence was identified as rainbow trout...
