摘要:
The present invention relates to novel DNA sequences encoding an avian growth hormone receptor and growth hormone binding protein, as well as the purified proteins per se . The invention also relates to methods for increasing growth of domesticated fowl, such as chickens, turkeys, ducks or geese, by manipulation of the expression of the growth hormone receptor gene.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to antibodies, in particular monoclonal antibodies, which specifically react with somatotropin binding proteins of animals, but not with the corresponding somatotropin receptors. The antibodies may be used alone to enhance the growth of animals, or may be used together with somatotropin to potentiate the effect of somatotropin in animals. The antibodies may also be used to assay the level of somatotropin binding protein of animals.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an isolated nucleic acid sequence which, as a promoter, is regulated in a developmental- and sex-specific manner. The sequence is useful in DNA constructs, in combination with a gene of interest, to achieve developmental and sex-specific expression of the gene in transgenic animals.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method to control parasitic mites on beneficial insects, such as honeybees, via the application of a parasiticidally effective amount of tebufenpyrad.
摘要:
The present invention provides peptides having pure somatostatin antagonist activity. Also provided are methods for increasing the release of growth hormone, insulin, glucagon and gastric enzymes in mammals and a method for the enhancement of immune function and growth in mammals.

摘要:
The present invention relates to the novel protein and DNA of serum somatotropin binding protein. The novel protein of the present invention uniquely contains a 17 amino acid "tail" on the carboxy terminal of the protein, produced by alternative splicing of RNA for the somatotropin receptor. The present invention also includes a method for identifying the serum somatotropin binding protein separate from the somatotropin receptor protein. This novel protein is useful in altering and affecting growth characteristics of animals.
