Abstract
We have isolated a new chicken gene that is a member of the cysteine-rich secreted protein family (CRISP). The CRISP family is composed of over 70 members that are found in many phyla of organisms, including: vertebrates, plants, fungi, yeast, and insects. Here we describe the cloning of a novel member of this family, SugarCrisp, and its expression pattern throughout chicken embryogenesis. We also describe its utility as a marker of thyroid and pancreatic mesoderm in the developing chicken embryo and its expression within the human and mouse in glandular tissue.
