Identification and Genomic Sequence of a Ghrelin Receptor (GHS-R)-like Receptor in the Mozambique Tilapia,Oreochromis mossambicus
1 May 2009
Abstract excerpt
The growth hormone secretagogue-receptor (GHS-R) Is an endogenous receptor for the gut hormone ghrelin (GRLN). Two lsoforms of GHS-R have been Identified In several animals: functional GHS-R1a and a splice variant of unknown function, GHS-R1b. Here we report Identification of a GHS-R-like receptor (GHSR-LR) In the Mozambique tilapia, Oreochromis mossambicus. The cDNA is 1584 bp In length and encodes a 384-amino...
