Insulin-Like Growth Factor-Binding Proteins of Teleost Fishes

Insulin-Like Growth Factor-Binding Proteins of Teleost Fishes

The insulin-like growth factor (Igf) binding protein (Igfbp) family has a broad range of physiological functions and a fascinating evolutionary history. This review focuses on the Igfbps of teleost fishes, where genome duplication events have diversified gene repertoire, function, and physiological...
