Complete Genomic Landscape Reveals Hidden Evolutionary History and Selection Signature in Asian Water Buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis)

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, January 27, 2025.
This study unveils the comprehensive genomic landscape of Asian water buffaloes, highlighting how selections drive the evolutionary divergence and genetic differentiation in morphology and productivity of the domesticated buffaloes. Insights into selective sweeps reveal key genes linked to coat color and milk production, offering a deeper understanding

Single and longitudinal genome‐wide association studies for dairy traits available in goats with three recorded lactations

Animal Genetics, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 257-264, April 2024.
Abstract Milk yield and composition phenotypes are systematically recorded across several lactations in goats, but the majority of genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) performed so far have rather ignored the longitudinal nature of such data. Here, we have used two different GWAS approaches to analyse data from three lactations recorded in Murciano ...

Site specific insertion of a transgene into the murine α‐casein (CSN1S1) gene results in the predictable expression of a recombinant protein in milk

Biotechnology Journal, Volume 19, Issue 2, February 2024.
Graphical Abstract and Lay Summary The integration of a transgene into a host genome can carried out using two different approaches. Via random integration or via site‐directed integration. Random integration is mediated by cellular DNA repair enzymes at random genomic locations at which an event of DNA damage has occurred.

Casein Gene Cluster in Camelids: Comparative Genome Analysis and New Findings on Haplotype Variability and Physical Mapping

Frontiers in Genetics, 2019
The structure of casein genes has been fully understood in llamas, whereas in other camelids, this information is still incomplete. In fact, structure and polymorphisms have been identified in three (CSN1S1, αs1-CN; CSN2, β-CN; CSN3, κ-CN) out of four ...

Relationships between milk protein polymorphisms and production traits in cattle: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

Archives Animal Breeding, 2018
Many researchers who have studied the relationships between milk protein polymorphisms and some yield traits in dairy cattle have reported incompatible results.

Betz cells of the primary motor cortex

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 532, Issue 1, January 2024.
Betz cells are ‘gigantopyramidal’ extratelencephalic projection neurons of the primary motor cortex that are part of the monosynaptic cortico‐motoneuronal pathway in humans and other primates. Here, we provide a comprehensive overview of the historic and emerging position of Betz cells in the evolutionary, functional and molecular taxonomy of neurons ...

Genetic polymorphism of CSN1S1 and CSN2 loci in Rossa Mediterranea goat population

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
The αs1(CSN1S1) and β (CSN2) casein loci were investigated in Rossa Mediterranea, a dairy goat population reared in Sicily, in order to identify the most important quantitative alleles.

Gestational age at birth influences protein and RNA content in human milk extracellular vesicles

Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 3, Issue 1, January 2024.
Abstract Human milk extracellular vesicles (HM EVs) are proposed to protect against disease development in infants. This protection could in part be facilitated by the bioactive EV cargo of proteins and RNA. Notably, mothers birth infants of different gestational ages with unique needs, wherein the EV cargo of HM may diverge.

Regulation of the expression of αS1 and αS2 casein genes in bovine mammary epithelial cells by STAT5A

Journal of Dairy Science
: Cow milk is rich in protein. Major cow milk proteins include αS1 casein (CSN1S1), αS2 casein (CSN1S2), β casein (CSN2), κ casein (CSN3), lactalbumin α (LALBA), and β-LG. These milk proteins are produced through gene expression in the mammary epithelial

Genetic variability of the ovine αs1-casein

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
The casein genetic polymorphisms are important for their effects on quantitative traits and technological properties of milk. At the αs1-casein (CSN1S1) level three genetic variants were characterised (A, C, D) in ovine milk (Ferranti et al., 1995).
