Abstract excerpt
Four different goat breeds (Pak-Angora, Dera Din Panah, Naachi and Teddy) of Pakistan were selected to investigate polymorphism in the prion protein gene (PrP gene) responsible for scrapie disease resistance in goats. Initially, genotyping of 187 animals of these four breeds by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) was done to see the genotype for codon 136 and 154. All the animals were monomorphic with...
