Origins of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone (GnRH) in Vertebrates: Identification of a Novel GnRH in a Basal Vertebrate, the Sea Lamprey

24 Apr 2008

Abstract excerpt

We cloned a cDNA encoding a novel (GnRH), named lamprey GnRH-II, from the sea lamprey, a basal vertebrate. The deduced amino acid sequence of the newly identified lamprey GnRH-II is QHWSHGWFPG. The architecture of the precursor is similar to that reported for other GnRH precursors consisting of a signal peptide, decapeptide, a downstream processing site, and a GnRH-associated peptide; however, the gene for...
