Abstract excerpt
The PR domain containing 16 (PRDM16) is a member of the Prdm family, and is known to regulate cell differentiation. In the present study, DNA pool sequencing methods were employed to screen genetic variations in the chicken PRDM16 gene. The results revealed four novel single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs): NC_006108.2: g.92188G>A, XM_417551: c.1161C>T (Ala/Ala, 387aa), c.1233C>T (Ser/Ser, 411aa) and c.1433G>A...
