Protein digestibility and bioavailability in an F2 mouse cross between the selected fat mouse line and an M2 congenic line carrying the anti-obesity and anti-diabetic Tst allele.

Abstract excerpt

The study was performed to investigate protein digestibility and utilization in an F2 cross (M2-F2 cross) between the selected Fat (F) line and an M2 congenic line. The congenic M2 line carried the Fob3b2 quantitative trait locus (QTL) from the selected Lean (L) line previously shown to contain the Tst gene with leanness, anti-diabetic and resistance to diet-induced obesity effects. The main objective of the...
