Diversity of the glycine/tyrosine-rich keratin-associated protein 6 gene (KAP6) family in sheep.

Molecular biology reports - 1 Jan 2011

Gong Hua, Zhou Huitong, Hickford Jon G H

Abstract excerpt

Keratin-associated proteins (KAPs) are structural components of wool and variation in them may affect wool characteristics. In this study, we used PCR-SSCP to analyse the ovine KAP6 family which encodes glycine and tyrosine-rich KAPs. Five unique PCR-SSCP patterns were detected in the 250 sheep investigated. Between two and five patterns were observed in individual sheep and none with only one pattern was...
