Abstract excerpt
Three pairs of primers were designed to clone the goat KiSS-1 and scan polymorphisms and four pairs to detect polymorphisms in sexual precocious and sexual late-maturing goat breeds. A 4118 bp DNA fragment was obtained, which contains an ORF of 408 bp and encodes 135 amino acids, having a high homology with other mammals. The protein was predicted containing a signal peptide of 17 amino acids. There are two...
