abstract：:Variants of growth hormone (GH) are present in most vertebrates. Chicken GH (cGH) undergoes posttranslational modifications that contribute to its structural diversity. Although the 22-kDa form of GH is the most abundant, some other variants have discrete bioactivities that may not be shared by others. The proportion ...
