A comparative genomics study of carbohydrate/glucose metabolic genes: from fish to mammals
Abstract Background Glucose plays a key role as an energy source in most mammals, but its importance in fish appears to be limited that so far seemed to belong to diabetic humans only. Several laboratories worldwide have made important efforts in order to better understand this strange phenotype obs...
