Abstract excerpt

In order to characterize the two new kappa-casein variants F and G (CSN3F and CSN3G) recently detected in Ayrshire and Pinzgauer cattle, exon IV of CSN3 from heterozygous animals was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), cloned and sequenced. The sequencing data revealed single point muta...
