Identification and Molecular Characterization of the Stanniocalcin Family Gene from the Inshore Hagfish, Eptatretus burgeri
2017
Journal of the Faculty of Agriculture Kyushu University
Stanniocalcin (STC) is a glycoprotein hormone that was first isolated from teleost corpuscles of Stannius. STC is involved in the decrease in plasma Ca 2+ level in teleosts. Comparative studies between invertebrate chordate STC and two paralogous vertebrate STCs suggest that the chordate ancestral gene of STC diverged into two paralogous genes in the evolution of vertebrates. However, this evolutionary scenario remains unclear. To clarify the diversification process of vertebrate STC, we made
