| Research Abstract |
When fish grows ovaries, a yolk precursor vitellogenin (Vg) is incorporated from the blood into oocyte following its binding to ovarian Vg receptor (VgR). This study first identified a portion of VgR-binding region on salmon Vg (sVg) using cutting-edged interactome techniques. Further, a novel C-type Vg (VgC) was cloned and its recombinant protein was synthesized with a limited amount; this provided a basis for discovering the unrevealed VgC receptor.
