title: Nucleotide sequence of cDNA and primary structure for hard tail growth hormone.
abstract: Full-length cDNA for hard tail growth hormone (htGH) has been cloned, and the nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences have been analyzed. htGH is composed of 188 amino acid residues, and it shows 79, 74, 72, 59, 56, 37, 33 and 30% identity of amino acid with yellow tail, tuna, sea bream, flounder, salmon, blue shark, bullfrog and human GHs, respectively.
