Abstract excerpt
beta-Lactoglobulin (beta-LG) is the major whey protein in the milk of cows and other ruminants. It is well established that the predominant genetic variants beta-LG A and B are differentially expressed. Extensive investigation of the genetic variation in the promoter region of the BLG gene revealed the existence of specific haplotypes associated with the A and B variants. However, the genetic basis for the...
