| Abstract: | Background The insulin signaling pathway (ISP) has a key role in major physiological events like carbohydrate metabolism and growth regulation.
The ISP has been well described in vertebrates and in a few invertebrate model organisms but remains largely unexplored in
non-model invertebrates. This study is the first detailed genomic study of this pathway in a crustacean species, Daphnia pulex. |
