Abstract excerpt
We have characterized a second nonallelic insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) gene in the chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) genome. This gene, IGF-I.2, differs from the previously described chum salmon IGF-I gene, IGF-I.1, in the E peptide-coding portion of exon 3; specifically, the IGF-I.2 gene lacks one codon present in the IGF-I gene and contains two potential splice donor sites at the 3' end of exon 3 rather...
