Identification of allelic polymorphism in the ovine leptin gene.

Molecular biotechnology - 1 Jan 2009

Zhou Huitong, Hickford Jon G H, Gong Hua

Abstract excerpt

Leptin is an adipocyte-derived hormone/cytokine that influences the physiological control of numerous biological functions and links nutritional status with both neuroendocrine and immune functions. In livestock, variation in the leptin (LEP) gene has been characterized in cattle and pig, but it...
