Abstract excerpt

Variations of Melanocortin Receptor 1 (MC1R) were investigated using sequencing, PCR-RFLP and PCR-SSCP, in three pig breeds, Landrace, Yorkshire, and Duroc. Five polymorphic sites were found, in which 668G-->C occurred within 5' UTR, nt894insCC in coding region resulting in a premature stop at codon 56, and 1318C-->T, 1554G-->A, 1197G-->A in coding region resulting in Ala164Val, Ala243Thr, and Asp124Asn...
