A Highly Prevalent SINE Mutation in The Myostatin (MSTN) Gene Promoter Is Associated With Low Circulating Myostatin Concentration in Thoroughbred Racehorses

2021-02-05

Abstract excerpt

Horse racing is a popular and financially important industry worldwide and researchers and horse owners are interested in genetic and training influences that maximise athletic performance. An association has been found between the presence of a short interspersed nuclear element (SINE) mutation in the myostatin ( MSTN ) gene promoter and optimal race distance in Thoroughbred horses. There is previous laboratory e...
