Abstract excerpt
The Sino-Danish pig genome project produced 685 851 ESTs (Gorodkin et al. 2007), of which 41 499 originated from the mitochondrial genome. In this study, the mitochondrial ESTs were assembled, and 374 putative SNPs were found. Chromatograms for the ESTs containing SNPs were manually inspected, and 112 total (52 non-synonymous) SNPs were found to be of high confidence (five of them are close to disease-causing...
