Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular cloning of cDNA encoding a cyclin-selective ubiquitin carrier protein (E2-C) from Carassius auratus (goldfish) and expression analysis of the cloned gene
TL;DR: The cloning, sequencing and expression analysis of goldfish, Carassius auratus, E2‐C which encodes the cyclin‐selective ubiquitin carrier protein from goldfish ovary suggests that E2-C mediates a cyclin-specific ubiquitination.
Teleost Ovarian Carbonyl Reductase-Like 20b-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase: Potential Role in the Production of Maturation-Inducing Hormone During Final
Minoru Tanaka,Shizuo Nakajin,Daisuke Kobayashi,Sachiko Fukada,Guijun Guan,Takashi Todo,Balasubramanian Senthilkumaran,Yoshitaka Nagahama +7 more
TL;DR: Results dem- onstrate that the carbonyl reductase of ayu ovary is involved in the production of maturation-inducing hormone, and they provide evidence for a novel physiological role of this enzyme in the final maturation of oocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Involvement in Meiotic Prophase of H1 Histone Kinase and p34cdc2 Homologues in Lily (Lilium longiflorum) Microsporocytes: (lily microsporocyte/p34cdc2 kinase/meiosis/pachytene)
Akihiko Yamaguchi,Masakane Yamashita,Michiyasu Yoshikuni,Yasuo Hotta,Paul Nurse,Yoshitaka Nagahama +5 more
TL;DR: Observations suggest that p34cdc2 or protein(s) highly homologous to p34CDc2 is a component of Lilium H1 histone kinase and plays a role in regulating meiotic prophase I.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation and expression of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) ovarian cDNA encoding 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/Δ5−4-isomerase
TL;DR: A distinct shift in steroidogenesis from testosterone to 17α-hydroxyprogesterone occurs in the salmonid ovarian thecal cell layers immediately prior to oocyte maturation, and is a prerequisite for the production of 17α,20β-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one.
