Molecular cloning of gonadotropin cDNA in sevenband grouper, Epinephelus septemfasciatus

Fish Physiology and Biochemistry volume 28, pages 107–108 (2003)Cite this article

Abstract

The cDNA for glycoprotein hormone (GPH) α-subunit, β-subunits of the FSH (GtH I) and LH (GtH II) were isolated, cloned, and sequenced from sevenband grouper pituitary using RACE PCR. These results show that sevenband grouper has two different types of gonadotropins FSH (GtH I) and LH (GtH II), as other teleosts.
