Abstract excerpt
Gelsolin is an actin-binding protein that plays a significant role in sustaining cell motility and cell metabolism. Investigations of the mutations present in the key regions of gelsolin provide extensive information to further understand the mechanism by which gelsolin causes variation in the phenotype [e.g., residual feed intake (RFI) or feed efficiency ]of pigs. However, there have been no investigations of...
