Thrombin digestion of bovine growth hormone (1–191) resulted in cleavage of the peptide bond between amino acid residues 133 and 134. Native growth hormone and purified peptides (1–133) and (134–191) were assayed for somatomedin-like activity. Peptide (1–133), ranging in concentration from 0·15–15 nmol/l, stimulated in-vitro uptake of [3H]thymidine by rat costal cartilage. None of the other peptides was biologically active.
Journal of Endocrinology is committed to supporting researchers in demonstrating the impact of their articles published in the journal.
The two types of article metrics we measure are (i) more traditional full-text views and pdf downloads, and (ii) Altmetric data, which shows the wider impact of articles in a range of non-traditional sources, such as social media.
