Abstract

Ninety nine random complementary DNA clones from rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) liver cDNA library were partially sequenced as one approach to analyze the transcribed sequences of its genome. Of the sequence generated, $64.0\%$ of the ESTs were represented by 29 known genes. Thirty six clones of the unknown gene products potentially represent 31 unique genes. Serum albumin $(16.1\%)$ was the most abundant in the liver. The structural genes in the liver $(19\%)$ were the highly expressed functional category. This research is helpful to understand tissue specific gene expression profile and basic relationship between tissue and functional categories of the genes.
