Dominant Red Coat Color in Holstein Cattle Is Associated with a Missense Mutation in the Coatomer Protein Complex, Subunit Alpha (COPA) Gene
Download2015
Sällman Almén, M., Liao, X., Stothard, P., Henegar, C., Van Doormaal, B., Rubin, C. -J., Andersson, L., Barsh, G. S., Ito, S., Plastow, G., Wakamatsu, K., Dorshorst, B.
Coat color in Holstein dairy cattle is primarily controlled by the melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) gene, a central determinant of black (eumelanin) vs. red/brown pheomelanin synthesis across animal species. The major MC1R alleles in Holsteins are Dominant Black (MC1RD) and Recessive Red (MC1Re). A...

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identify a QTL close to PRKAG3 affecting meat pH and colour in crossbred commercial pigs
Download2015
Miar, Y., Plastow, G. S., Charagu, P., Wang, Z., Kemp, R. A., Bruce, H., Zhang, Z., Yang, T.
Background Improving meat quality is a high priority for the pork industry to satisfy consumers’ preferences. GWAS have become a state-of-the-art approach to genetically improve economically important traits. However, GWAS focused on pork quality are still relatively rare. Results Six...

Proteome Analyst - Transparent High-throughput Protein Annotation: Function, Localization and Custom Predictors
Download2003
Lu, Z., Eisner, Roman, Lu, Paul, Macdonell, Cam, Szafron, Duane, Greiner, Russell, Poulin, B., Wishart, David, Anvik, J., Habibi-Nazhad, B.
Technical report TR03-05. Modern sequencing technology now permits the sequencing of entire genomes, leading to thousands of new gene sequences in need of detailed annotation. It is too time consuming to predict the properties of each protein sequence manually and to organize the results of many...
