Identification of the cDNA Encoding the Growth Hormone Receptor (GHR) and the Regulation of GHR and IGF-I Gene Expression by Nutritional Status in Reeves’ Turtle (Chinemys reevesii)

Chinemys reevesii (Reeves’ turtle) is a slow-growing reptile that is distributed widely across China. Prior to this study, the cDNA sequence of the growth hormone receptor (GHR) in the Reeve’s turtle, or how periods of starvation might influence the gene expression of GHR and insulin-like growth fac...
