Polymorphisms in the autosomal genes for mitochondrial function TFAM and UCP2 are associated with performance and longevity in dairy cows
The autosomal genes mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) and uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) are both involved in moderating mitochondrial energy production. This study investigated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in TFAM and UCP2 and their associations with growth, fertility, milk product...
