Abstract excerpt
In mammals, the STAT proteins (signal transducers and activators of transcription) are a group of cytoplasmic transcription factors that mediate the actions of many peptide hormones and cytokines within target cells. In this study, the STAT5A/AvaI polymorphism was investigated with the PCR-RFLP technique in a sample of 191 Jersey cows reared in southern Italy. This polymorphism is localized in the coding region...
