Abstract excerpt
Examination of published rat and human sequences for the insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) gene indicated the presence of CA dinucleotide repeats in corresponding segments of each. Presence of similar microsatellite sequences in the porcine and bovine IGF-I genes was hypothesized. A 1200-bp segment upstream of the porcine and bovine IGF-I genes was amplified using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with...
