The avian calcitonin gene was isolated and sequenced; two mRNAs are expressed by tissue-specific alternate splicing. The peptides encoded by the mRNAs are the protein precursors of either calcitonin or calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). Calcitonin is expressed predominantly in ultimobranchial bodies and CGRP in brain.
鸟类降钙素基因被分离并测序;两种mRNA通过组织特异性可变剪接表达。这些mRNA编码的肽是降钙素或降钙素基因相关肽(CGRP)的蛋白质前体。降钙素主要在鳃后体中表达,而CGRP在脑中表达。
