Identification of uterine ion transporters for mineralisation precursors of the avian eggshell
BACKGROUND: In Gallus gallus, eggshell formation takes place daily in the hen uterus and requires large amounts of the ionic precursors for calcium carbonate (CaCO(3)). Both elements (Ca(2+), HCO(3)(-)) are supplied by the blood via trans-epithelial transport. Our aims were to identify genes coding...
