ASSOCIATIONS OF DGAT1 POLYMORPHISM WITH MILK CHARACTERISTICS IN SLOVAK DAIRY COWS

DGAT1 encodes diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.20), a microsomal enzyme that catalyzes the final step of triglyceride synthesis. It was shown that the QTL variation is most likely caused by a nonconservative base substitution in the candidate gene DGAT1 changing lysine to alanine (K232A) i...
