Characterization of myostatin gene (MSTN) of Pekin duck and the association of its polymorphism with breast muscle traits.

Genetics and molecular research : GMR - 28 Feb 2013

Abstract excerpt

Myostatin, encoded by the MSTN gene, is a negative regulator of muscle growth, and its expression level in muscle tissue is closely correlated with muscle growth and satellite cell proliferation. To identify the characteristics of the Pekin duck MSTN gene and the relationship between its polymorphism and breast muscle traits in Pekin duck, cDNA cloning and analysis and the expression pattern in breast muscle...
