Identification and Functional Analysis of the Sex-Determiner Transformer-2 Homologue in the Freshwater Pearl Mussel, Hyriopsis cumingii
Transformer-2 (Tra-2) is an upstream regulatory element of the sex regulation mechanism in insects and plays a critical role in sex formation. To understand the role of tra-2 in Hyriopsis cumingii, the full-length Hctra-2 (1867 bp) was obtained from the gonads, and sequence alignment with other spec...
