Loss of Selenov predisposes mice to extra fat accumulation and attenuated energy expenditure

Selenoprotein V (SELENOV) is a new and the least conserved member of the selenoprotein family. Herein we generated Selenov knockout (KO) mice to determine its in vivo function. The KO led to 16–19% increases (P < 0.05) in body weight that were largely due to 54% higher (P < 0.05) fat mass accu...
