Abstract excerpt
Differential production of the two most common allelic variants of beta-lactoglobulin (LG), beta-LG A and beta-LG B, has been observed using PAGE. This study evaluated 733 bp of the beta-LG promoter region and 92 bp of the first exon for possible polymorphisms using denaturing gradient gel electr...
