Agouti revisited: transcript quantification of the ASIP gene in bovine tissues related to protein expression and localization.
Beside its role in melanogenesis, the agouti signaling protein (ASIP) has been related to obesity. The potentially crucial role in adipocyte development makes it a tempting candidate for economic relevant, fat related traits in farm animals. The objective of our study was to characterize the mRNA ex...
