Identification of rare genetic variants of the αS-caseins in milk from native Norwegian dairy breeds and comparison of protein composition with milk from high-yielding Norwegian Red cows.

Abstract excerpt

Several factors influence the composition of milk. Among these, genetic variation within and between cattle breeds influences milk protein composition, protein heterogeneity, and their posttranslational modifications. Such variations may further influence technological properties, which are of importance for the utilization of milk into dairy products. Furthermore, these potential variations may also facilitate...
