Genetic architecture of thermotolerance traits in beef cattle: a novel integration of SNP and breed-of-origin effects

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics
BackgroundRising temperatures increasingly expose beef cattle to heat stress, reducing productivity and welfare, especially in tropical climates. Crossbreeding Bos t. taurus and Bos t.

Analysis of Treacher Collins syndrome 4‐associated mutations in Schizosaccharomyces pombe

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Fission yeast models carrying Treacher Collins syndrome type 4‐associated mutations reveal that impaired processivity of RNA polymerase I leads to defective rRNA transcription. This study highlights the essential role of a conserved arginine residue in Pol I elongation and provides mechanistic insight into the pathogenesis of ribosomopathies.

CROSSBREEDING EFFECTS AND POLYMORPHIC ASSOCIATIONS OF GENOTYPES OF GH GENE WITH GROWTH TRAITS IN RABBITS

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Rabbit Science, 2019
A simple crossbreeding experiment between two new synthetic rabbit lines (APRI and Moshtohor) was conducted to estimate the crossbreeding effects (direct additive, maternal additive and heterosis) on post-weaning body weights (BW) at 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 ...

TMC4 localizes to multiple taste cell types in the mouse taste papillae

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Transmembrane channel‐like 4 (TMC4), a voltage‐dependent chloride channel, plays a critical role in amiloride‐insensitive salty taste transduction. TMC4 is broadly expressed in all mature taste cell types, suggesting a possible involvement of multiple cell types in this pathway.

Genetic aspects of calving, growth, and carcass traits in beef cattle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The aim of this thesis was to learn more about the genetic background of calving, growth and carcass traits of beef cattle breeds in Sweden, and to assess the possibility of including calving traits and commercial carcass traits in the genetic evaluation.
