Prohormone convertases (PCs) are calcium-dependent serine endoproteases of the subtilisin/kexin family that play a key role in the posttranslational processing of precursors for biologically active peptides. In this study, we have characterized the cDNA encoding PC1 in the European green frog Rana r

## Abstract In order to determine the primary structure of vitellogenin in a protandric species, the coonstriped shrimp __Pandalus hypsinotus__, we previously purified four vitellin components (designated as VnA, VnB, VnC, and VnD, respectively), and chemically analyzed their partial amino acid seq
## Abstract A number of cDNA clones for rat dopamine β‐hydroxylase (DBH) were isolated from a rat pheochromocytoma tumor cDNA library. The 2445 nucleotide sequence revealed a single open reading frame of 1860 nucleotides and a 3′ untranslated region containing two polyadenylation addition signals.
While much is known about the neural and endocrine mechanisms that control egg laying in the gastropod mollusk Aplysia, relatively little is known about the regulation of male reproductive activity in this simultaneous hermaphrodite. In the present study, we have cloned and sequenced a cDNA that enc
