Abstract excerpt

We describe for the first time a 245 bp fragment of the porcine leptin gene promoter in the proximity of the transcription start site. Altogether, 720 pigs were screened with the PCR-SSCP technique for polymorphism in this region. Four SNPs, segregating as two haplotypes, have been identified, one of them (C113G) in the putative consensus site for the AP-2 transcription factor. This polymorphism was evenly...
