Abstract excerpt
Adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL), catalyzing the initial step of hydrolysis of triacylglycerol (TAG) in adipocytes, has been known to be inhibited by G0/G1 switch protein 2 (G0S2). In this study, we determined tissue expression pattern and polymorphism of G0S2 gene in porcine. The results showed that the G0S2 transcript levels were very high in the liver and, to a lesser degree, in adipose tissues of greater...
