Structural and functional evolution of gonadotropin‐releasing hormone in vertebrates

18 Feb 2008

Abstract excerpt

The neuropeptide gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) has a central role in the neural control of vertebrate reproduction. This review describes an overview of what is currently known about GnRH in vertebrates in the context of its structural and functional evolution. A large body of evidence has demonstrated the existence of three paralogous genes for GnRH (GnRH1, GnRH2 and GnRH3) in the vertebrate lineage....
