Gene structure of chum salmon somatolactin, a presumed pituitary hormone of the growth hormone/prolactin family.

Molecular endocrinology (Baltimore, Md.) - 1 Jun 1991

Takayama Y, Rand-Weaver M, Kawauchi H, Ono M

Abstract excerpt

From a chum salmon genomic DNA library, clones coding for somatolactin (SL), a presumed pituitary hormone belonging to the GH/PRL family, were isolated and analyzed. The salmon SL gene was 16 kilobases (kb) in length, this being the largest among mammalian GH (approximately 2 kb) and PRL (approximately 10 kb) and fish GH (approximately 4 kb) genes. As in the case of mammalian GH/PRL genes, the salmon SL gene was...
