title: Carp cDNA sequence encoding a putative diazepam-binding inhibitor/endozepine/acyl-CoA-binding protein.
abstract: A full-length cDNA coding for common carp diazepam-binding inhibitor (DBI)/endozepine (EP)/acyl-CoA-binding protein (ACBP) was isolated and sequenced. The deduced DBI/EP/ACBP is comprised of 87 amino acids (including initiating methionine) without possessing a signal peptide. Common carp DBI/EP/ACBP displays 77%, 78%, 70%, 63%, 61% and 45% identity with human, bovine, rat, frog, duck and yeast DBI/EP/ACBP, respectively.
