Major effect of retinal short-chain dehydrogenase reductase (RDHE2) on bovine fat colour.

Mammalian genome : official journal of the International Mammalian Genome Society - 1 Jun 2012

Abstract excerpt

Beef with yellow fat is considered undesirable by consumers in most European and Asian markets. β-Carotene is the major carotenoid deposited in the adipose tissue and milk fat of cattle (Bos taurus), which can result in the yellowness. The effects of retinal short-chain dehydrogenase reductase (R...
