The cDNA of the androgen receptor (AR) has been isolated from the ovary of red seabream, Pagrus major, and sequenced. The amino acid sequence of red seabream AR (rsAR) shows about 45% identity with those of Xenopus, rat, mouse, and human ARS. It is shown that rsAR has the ability to trans-activate the responsive gene depending on the presence of androgen.
