Genomic Structure and Expression Sites of Three Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Genes in One Species
1 Oct 1998
Abstract excerpt
In the teleost fish, Haplochromis burtoni, gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) peptide has been localized to three distinct regions in the brain. Each GnRH population is associated with expression of a distinct cDNA as previously described. Here we report the complete genomic sequences encoding these three forms and compare their structural organization, putative regulatory elements, and expression patterns in...
