Abstract excerpt
Growth is under complex genetic control and uncovering the molecular mechanisms how the genes and polymorphisms affect economic growth traits, are important for successful marker-assisted selection and more efficient management strategies in commercial cattle populations. SIRT1 is a NAD(+)-dependent deacetylase that belongs to the class III histone deacetylases. It plays an important role in numerous fundamental...
