Abstract excerpt
Evidence has shown in mouse that the p160 co-activator family, consisting of nuclear receptor co-activators 1 (NCOA1), 2 (NCOA2) and 3 (NCOA3) plays a critical role in adipogenesis. In the present study, we cloned these three porcine genes, identified their transcript variants and analyzed their expression level in relation to intramuscular fat (IMF) content in Longissimus Dorsi (LD) muscle. Both in silico...
