The LcGH cDNA (Genbank No. AY530822), about 989nt (nucleotide) long, consisted of a open reading frame with 615nt long, 5′and 3′untranslated regions with 93nt and 224nt long respectively, and a 57nt poly (A) tail. The DNA sequence analysis showed that there are typical Kozak sequence and polyadenylation signal. The pregrowth hormone peptide of 204aa deduced from LcGH cDNA included a putative signal peptide (17aa) locating in its N-terminal. There exist a Asn-Cys-Thr glycosylation site at amino acid 201, and 4 cysteine residues (No. 69, 177, 194, 202) that are essential to construct two S-S bonds in this pregrowth hormone peptide. Homological comparision among LcGH and other species growth hormones showed that There is high homology (more than 85%) between growth hormone of Lepomis cyanellus and that of most perciformes fish, but low homology (less than 70%) in comparison with other species such as Siluriformes and Cypriniformes fish.展开更多
