- Abstract
The article reports on the cloning, characterization and tissue specific expression of Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I). One of the largest five remaining sub-species of tiger is the Amur tiger which can only be found in northeast China, far east Russia, and North Korea. This species is in the brink of extinction due to threats of illegal poaching and habitat destruction.
