Four stanniocalcin genes in teleost fish: Structure, phylogenetic analysis, tissue distribution and expression during hypercalcemic challenge

Stanniocalcin (STC), first isolated from the corpuscles of Stannius (CS) of teleost fishes and a systemic regulator of mineral metabolism, is present in all vertebrates as two isoforms, STC1 and STC2, encoded by separate genes. Here we show that the genome of Tetraodon nigroviridis, and other teleos...
