The ovine insulin-like growth factor-I gene: characterization, expression and identification of a putative promoter
1 Feb 1991
Abstract excerpt
Genomic DNA encoding the ovine insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) gene was cloned and sequenced. The predicted amino acid sequence of the mature form of ovine IGF-I was highly homologous to that of human, rat and mouse. Analysis of the DNA sequence between exons 1 and 2 suggested the existence of an alternative 5' exon (exon 1A) and this was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis of sheep liver...
