Abstract:
The sn-glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene (Gpdh) in the locust (Locusta migratoria) encodes three mature transcripts and a number of isozymes. Gpdh expression is tissue- and developmentally regulated such that two transcripts are unique to flight muscle. Identical proteins are encoded by two transcripts which are generated by alternative splicing downstream of the stop codon in the penultimate exon.
