SCRC: SCRC Honours Scholarship: Ying Ying Lee "Understanding the role of Kiss1/Kiss1r system in controlling the puberty in Yellowtail kingfish and Southern Bluefin Tuna"

The cDNA encoding for G-protein coupled receptor 54 (GPR54) was cloned from the brains of Southern Bluefin Tuna (SBT) and Yellowtail Kingfish (YTK). The SBT GPR54 has an open reading frame of 1134bp encoding a predicted 378 amino acid peptide, containing seven putative transmembrane domains, a 138...
