- Abstract
The article focuses on the findings of a study concerning the mutation in the splice donor site of intron 7 in the α-casein encoding gene of the Mediterranean River buffalo results in an allele-specific exon skipping. It notes the cDNA sequence comparisons which reveals that five individuals had a normal transcript and the other had a deleted transcript only. Moreover, it mentions that buffalos are similar to goats and cattles that have a CSN1S2 allele.
