Abstract excerpt
Bovine alpha s1-casein (alpha s1-CN) allele A is found in low allelic frequencies among different cattle breeds and is known to be characterized by the deletion of amino-acid residues 14 to 26 of the mature protein (as defined via the most common allele B), and a corresponding deletion of 39 bp f...
