Functional validation of GPIHBP1 and identification of a functional mutation in GPIHBP1 for milk fat traits in dairy cattle
Abstract In a previous genome-wide association study (GWAS) on milk production traits in a Chinese Holstein population, we revealed that GPIHBP1 is a novel promising candidate gene for milk fat content traits. In this study, we performed over-expression and RNAi experiments on GPIHBP1 in bovine prim...
