Abstract excerpt
SLC45A2 is involved in the synthesis of melanin transporters. We investigated the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the SLC45A2 gene and humidity and hot conditions in indigenous cattle habitat. According to the Bovine Genome Variation Database and Selective Signatures (BGVD), we explored the frequency distribution of a missense mutation (NC_037347.1: c.1543A > G, p.ser515gly) in the...
