- Abstract
The article presents a study which examines the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4) gene deletion mutation in Chinese cattle. The study uses genomic DNA samples from 818 cattle from various breeds including Nanyang, Jiaxian, and Qinchuan cattle. It employs DNA sequencing methods to identify the polymorphisms of bovine RBP4 gene. It reveals the detection of 4-bp deletion in intron 3 while two mutations in exon 3 in four Chinese bovine breeds.
