Abstract excerpt

Acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase alpha (ACACA) catalyses the first committed step in the biosynthesis of long-chain fatty acids (FA) by converting acetyl-CoA into malonyl-CoA. In pigs, the ACACA gene maps to a chromosome 12 QTL with important effects on FA composition. In the present study, we have sequenced the coding region of the pig ACACA gene in 15 pigs, identifying 21 polymorphic sites that were either...
