Abstract excerpt
In rainbow trout, there are at least two CYP19 genes (CYP19a and CYP19b). They encode distinct P450arom isozymes that are differentially expressed in the ovary and brain. To understand the transcriptional regulation of the rainbow trout CYP19a (rtCYP19a) gene in the ovary, we isolated its 5'-flanking region. The presence of potential FTZ-F1-binding sites prompted us to isolate the cDNA encoding a rainbow trout...
