A 5-Methylcytosine Site of Growth Differentiation Factor 9 (GDF9) Gene Affects Its Tissue-Specific Expression in Sheep

A 5-Methylcytosine Site of Growth Differentiation Factor 9 (GDF9) Gene Affects Its Tissue-Specific Expression in Sheep

Growth differentiation factor 9 (<i>GDF9</i>) plays an important role in the early folliculogenesis of sheep. This study investigated the mRNA expression of ovine <i>GDF9</i> in different tissues by real-time PCR. <i>GDF9</i> exhibits significantly higher levels o...
