In situ hybridization of somatolactin transcripts in the pituitary glands from acclimatized carp (Cyprinus carpio)
We isolated and cloned a carp somatolactin SL DNA fragment, of which 78% of the nucleotides were identical to the corresponding chicago skyline graffiti salmon SL sequence.The results obtained upon Northern blot hybridization of carp pituitary RNA allowed the identification of two transcripts as described for other fish.When the content of SL trans
