Application of recombinant DNA technologies to studies on chicken growth hormone

Abstract: Messenger RNA isolated from chicken pituitaries was used to construct a chicken pituitary cDNA library. A chicken growth hormone cDNA clone was isolated using 32P-labeled mammalian growth hormone cDNA probes. The amino acid sequence (derived from the DNA sequence) of the mature form of chicken growth hormone shows 77% homology with that of bovine growth hormone. The chicken growth hormone cDNA clone was used to generate a vector capable of producing chicken growth hormone in Escherichia coli. The recombinant E… Show more

“…It is also possible to obtain avian germline chimaeras using isolated primordial germ cells (Yasuda et al, 1992) and to introduce foreign DNA into primordial germ cells before grafting (Sawa et al, 1991). In other attempts, foreign DNA has been inserted into chicken germlines by injecting either replication competent avian leukosis viruses (Souza et al, 1984;Salter et al, 1986Salter et al, , 1987 or replication defective reticuloendotheliosis vectors (Bosselman et al, 1989a) into the embryo before incubation. Replication competent retroviral vectors have disadvantages since they increase the potential for disease states associated with chronic viral infection (Hayward et al, 1981;Nouri-Daloii et al, 1981).…”

“…From another point of view, molecular genetics can offer a new tool to test the hypothesis of an abnormal GH hormone or GH receptor in the dwarf. The gene for chicken GH has been cloned (Souza et al, 1984) and could be used as a probe to detect a structural difference of the GH gene between dwarf and normal chicks, according to the method of restriction fragment length polymorphism. This difference should not be connected with the antigenic properties of the hormone, since it is normally recognized with the usual radioimmunoassays.…”
