Genetic identification of Ly75 as a novel quantitative trait gene for resistance to obesity in mice
29 Nov 2018
Abstract excerpt
Identification of causal quantitative trait genes (QTGs) governing obesity is challenging. We previously revealed that the lymphocyte antigen 75 (Ly75) gene with an immune function is a putative QTG for Pbwg1.5, a quantitative trait locus (QTL) for resistance to obesity found from wild mice (Mus musculus castaneus). The objective of this study was to identify a true QTG for Pbwg1.5 by a combined approach of a...
