Abstract excerpt
Copy number variation (CNV) is a structural variation at the submicroscopic level of the genome, which can affect gene-related phenotypes by changing genes dosage and transcript structure. Hematopoietic prostaglandin D synthase (HPGDS) is a member whose functions are closely related to weight gain and inflammatory diseases of the glutathione S-transferase (GSTs) family. In this study, the growth characteristics...
