Resumo(s)
Most estrogen actions are mediated by two estrogen receptor subtypes
(ER and ER ). While a single ER appears to be present in higher
vertebrates, two forms of ER encoded by different genes have recently been
isolated in some teleost fish species. We investigated whether this also applies
to the hermaphrodite sparid sea bream (Sparus auratus) and cloned a second
ER (sbER 2) in this species. We have also compared the tissue distribution of
the three receptors as yet identified in sea bream, designated sbER , sbER 1,
and sbER 2.
