Tissue- and development-specific expression of goat insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) mRNAs

We cloned four kinds of goat insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) cDNAs. Each of them encodes the same mature IGF-I and different signal peptides. In this study, we analyzed expression of the four kinds of mRNAs in tissues in various developmental stages by a reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain r...

Description
Summary:We cloned four kinds of goat insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) cDNAs. Each of them encodes the same mature IGF-I and different signal peptides. In this study, we analyzed expression of the four kinds of mRNAs in tissues in various developmental stages by a reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction assay. The results suggest that their expression may be controlled by different promoters, the activities of which are tissue- and development-specific
