Abstract excerpt
Chinese indigenous Mi gilts have clearer estrus expression than European Large White gilts, and sulfotransferase 1C1 (SULT1C1) gene was differentially expressed between them. To investigate the differential expression mechanism of porcine SULT1C1 gene, we cloned its promoter region and predicted its activity. Six deletion expression vectors (P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, and P6) for the promoter of SULT1C1 gene were...
