Abstract excerpt
Adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) is an important triglyceride-specific lipase that catalyzes the initial step in triglyceride hydrolysis. In this study, cloning, sequencing, and mRNA real-time analyses were employed to characterize the chicken ATGL gene. We obtained a total of 1,528-bp long chicken ATGL cDNA fragment including 51-bp 5'UTR, 1,452-bp open reading frame (ORF), and 25-bp 3'UTR. The predicted...
