Abstract excerpt
Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is an enzyme that catalyzes de novo synthesis of fatty acids in cells. The bovine FASN gene maps to BTA 19, where several quantitative trait loci for fat-related traits have been described. Our group recently reported the identification of a single nucleotide polymorphi...
