Abstract excerpt
The AT-rich interaction domain 4 A (ARID4A) has an important role in regulating Sertoli cell function and male fertility. Its molecular mechanisms, however, remain largely unknown. In this study, two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (g.53 G > T, ss 1966531596, and g.826 G > A, rs 210809648) were identified in the promoter region of ARID4A in 215 Chinese Holstein bulls using polymerase chain reaction...
