Molecular tools for studying puberty in the grey mullet, Mugil cephalus: cloning of cDNAs that regulate reproductive function

Fish Physiology and Biochemistry volume 28, pages 47–48 (2003)Cite this article

Abstract

The cDNAs coding for the brain GnRHs (AY373449-51), pituitary GH, SL and PRL, and liver IGFs (AY427954-5) were isolated. Partial cDNA sequences of the brain (Cyp19b) and gonadal (Cyp19a) aromatases have also been obtained. These tools would be utilized to study the endocrine regulation of puberty in the grey mullet.
